Repairing the World
Through Innovation.
TOM – Tikkun Olam Makers is a global movement that brings together makers to create solutions for people with disabilities and those in need.
TOM – Tikkun Olam Makers is all about using innovation to improve the lives of people with disabilities and those in need.
The name Tikkun Olam means “repairing the world”, and it’s at the heart of everything we do. We’re on a mission to make a positive impact, leaving the world better than we found it.
We work with people with a disability who have a specific need and connect them with a diverse group of students and volunteers.
Together, the team designs and builds prototypes that solve specific challenges and improve the everyday life of the Need-Knower. Prototype designs are shared open-source on our website under Projects. This allows anyone from around the world to replicate or enhance the design within their community.
