LidKids
Thank you to all of the people who have sent in lids for our Mini Vinnies project. Your response has been amazing!
To date we have 2,220 lids.
We smashed our goal for Term 3 and now we are looking to collect 5,000 by the end of Term 4!
WE CAN DO IT!!!
LidKids is a project helping children who have been born without a hand, or lost a hand to illness or injury. Made out of plastic bottle lids, with a 3D printer, all of the plastic bottle lids combined are melted together to form a prosthetic hand. The lids that are suitable are the lids that say a 2 or a 4 on the bottom of the cap.
Please send in clean lids from milk, juice and soft drink bottles. We can make a difference!
