We love to hear about our grants in action, and this story shared by GHS librarian Kim Garee is really special 💖⭐
A recent moment in the Granville High School library beautifully illustrates the impact of the Granville Education Foundation’s support of our new 3D printers. While intended for student passion projects, we could only guess at potential uses. This week, a student named Hope saw an opportunity to help someone in our community. She recognized that a wheelchair user at her workplace struggled to reach the card reader independently and wondered if a solution could be created. Another student, Evan, took on the challenge with her, designing and printing a custom “card wand extender,” even matching it to the customer’s wheelchair. This small but meaningful innovation restored a sense of dignity and independence for the individual. Without any expectation of reward, these students demonstrated empathy, adaptability, and critical thinking in action—using technology not just to create, but to care.
