⚙️ What is A4A? 🛠

💪 Rutgers A4A – Accessible 4 All – is a nonprofit club at Rutgers dedicated to creating, modifying, and adapting toys and appliances for children with disabilities!

🖌 Founded in 2024, we believe all children deserve the ability to play in safe and comfortable ways! A4A works directly with families and schools to ensure every project is perfectly customized to each child’s measurements, accessibility needs, and personal interests. We run multiple projects per semester, which are gifted to the families at an end-of-semester showcase!

💡All Rutgers NB students are able to join – all majors, all years, absolutely no experience needed! Come to our interest meetings (non-committal) at the start of each semester to see if you’re interested in joining a project! For more frequent updates or any additional questions, join our Discord and GroupMe (links in bio).
