Camas Lions Club Helps Deliver Custom 3D-Printed Mobility Trainer to Vancouver, WA Child
CAMAS, Wash. — June 2026 — The Camas Lions Club is proud to announce the successful delivery of a custom 3D-printed toddler mobility trainer to Benjamin, a 5-year-old boy from Vancouver, Washington, through a collaborative partnership with MakeGood and local Lions Club members.
Sunday, August 9, 2026, marks the delivery of the fourth custom mobility trainer provided by the Camas Lions Club, which continues to collaborate with regional organizations, therapy centers, and community partners to reach more children and families throughout the area.
The mobility trainer was designed by MakeGood, 3D printed by Camas Lion Chris Starke, and sponsored by the Camas Lions Club. The custom device was created specifically for Benjamin, incorporating his favorite character, Bluey, into personalized wheel designs. Adding a special touch of comfort and style, Camas Lion Sherry Keene handcrafted beautiful custom cushions designed to match the trainer.
Camas Lion Chris Starke, along with fellow club members, met Benjamin and his family in Vancouver to present the mobility trainer. The moment became a heartfelt celebration for everyone involved, filling the family—and the many Camas Lions members—with genuine joy.
The initiative reflects the supportive and collaborative spirit of the Camas Lions Club. When members first expressed interest in expanding assistive technology projects, the club rallied together, encouraging and supporting the effort just as they do with every community initiative.
As Camas Lions Club President Tim Eubank shared regarding the club’s growing impact, “We are expanding our horizons with every project, every day.” This milestone project highlights a growing movement of community volunteers leveraging modern technology and hands-on craftsmanship to create life-changing assistive devices. Through strong partnerships and local networking, the Camas Lions Club continues to remove barriers and deliver custom solutions through dedicated service to the community.
