TEF challenges each of you to invite the Fab Labs volunteers to present a description of the Fab lab concept as the program for your monthly meeting or other interested groups and consider ways that you might help ensure the Tulsa Fab Lab’s success.  Critical items at this juncture are the identification of a suitable building in the Kendall-Whittier neighborhood to house the Fab Lab and the completion of the funding sponsorship.  As a reminder to those over age 70 ½, the tax free donation directly from an IRA or 401(k) to a 501 (c ) (3 ) non-profit has been extended through the end of this calendar year.  Contact Matthew Norris, PE, the engineer leading the initiative, at (918) 346-8591 or mnorris@innovationworksllc.com; or Trinna Burrows, Executive Director of KWI, at (918) 743-9559 or tburrows@kendallwhittierinc.org for more information on sponsorship.   

TEF is committed to support the initiative through communication to all our members.  We plan to have an article about Fab Lab in each monthly edition of the Tulsa Engineer. The articles are available below by clicking on the link.
