A national truck driver shortage remains high heading into the holiday shopping season and that could impact the movement of goods. The issues is being felt in the Kansas City area as well.
ANGOLA â Prosthetics can be a blessing for people who are missing a limb, but theyâre also very expensive.
That expense can make them impractical for children and adolescents who are constantly growing and changing. However, a senior design group of Trine University engineering majors completed a project this year that provided solutions for two teenage girls born without left hands.
With support from the Kosciusko County Community Foundationâs Helping Hands Fund, the team of Marissa Shaver, a biomedical engineering major from Fostoria, Ohio, Ben Avey, a mechanical engineering major from Pendleton, David Cervera, a biomedical engineering major from South Bend and Karina Bruce, a biomedical engineering major from Findlay, Ohio, designed low-cost prosthetics that will allow the girls to perform routine tasks such as curling their hair.
