I've been concerned for years about all the plastic in our oceans and in our world. Through Coastsavers, I was able to learn about Million Waves Project and spent a day with my family cleaning up the Washington coast with them. We also happen to have friends who have directly benefited from their organization. Their daughter has a prosthetic hand built by MWP! I have changed the way I go about my day just by learning about their organization. When I'm out walking every day, I scour the streets looking for trash, especially #1 plastic. I've been saving it all in my garage to help print more hands. We need more brilliant solutions like this to save our environment! So impressed with them!

This is an amazing project! Win, win! Clean up our environment and help children who need prosthetics! I have seen first hand how one of the prosthetic hands work and hope we can get them to kids in need!

This charity is awesome. The idea they had of recycling ocean plastic to make prosthetics is genius. Genuine, good people going that extra mile.
