A great story from Harbor Freight Tools for Schools showcasing the work of Eli Murphy, an 8th grader from Enumclaw, WA.
Here's a boost of trades goodness to start off your 2021: 8th grader Eli Murphy (Enumclaw, WA) customized an electric car to help mobility-challenged 3-year-old Ollie Horton (Denver) as part of his distance-learning trades education.

We were honored to fund this project as part of a pilot program designed by prizewinning former teacher Bob Kilmer. Check out the video:
