To all the volunteers and volunteer groups out there in the 3D Printing Community around the world,
We wanted to take this time to express our gratitude to you in helping make and donate 3D printed supplies to our 1st responders, healthcare workers, and essential workers on the front lines in the fight against COVID-19.
We know how material costs can really add up and we’d like to offer our help to add your profile to our Meet the Volunteers page which can include links to your websites, social media pages, and GoFundMe.
Operation Make was created as a platform to help match volunteers and volunteer groups across the world directly with the donation requests coming straight from the boots on the ground (nurses, essential workers). For this reason, Operation Make does not accept direct monetary donations and instead allows requesters to provide monetary contributions directly to the individual volunteers and volunteer groups.
If you’d like us to help share your story or volunteer group’s story, please reply back to this email operationMake@gmail.com with any of the below optional information and we’ll feature you in an upcoming post on our website and social media accounts to help spread the cause: instagram, facebook, twitter.

Or having trouble keeping up with your demand? Feel free to submit a Donation Request here and it will automatically show up on the same Open Requests board for other volunteers to help out.
Cheers,
