Please join us for the EmpowerED: Maker Challenge, a collaborative initiative presented by St. Edward High School and Youth Challenge. Over two impactful days, professionals and students will unite in a shared mission to address real-world challenges faced by adults with physical limitations. Join us in making a difference in the lives of these remarkable individuals as we work together to elevate their overall quality of life. This is not your typical maker fair; it's an invitation to contribute your skills and creativity towards crafting solutions that redefine possibilities and empower those striving for independence.
