Empowering Products Change Lives. Uplift490 is all about products that help resource-limited people lift themselves up. We find, catalog, help improve, and help distribute affordable products for people and organizations who need them. If a product doesn't exist, we help create it!
Uplift490 Projects:
Cat490: A dynamic digital catalog, a collection of products, machines, tools, plans, and methods. It's updated by the people, communities, and organizations offering appropriate products.
The Give Bank(tm): Designers, makers, scientists, and other professionals pledge pro bono hours to work on product design and development as well as mentor those who want to learn.
Design490: Providing design principles and resources to entrepreneurial product designers. We seek to collaborate with design-centric teaching organizations, universities, and labs around the world.
