Tinkered Toy Box started as a collaboration between Michigan Medicine and Washtenaw Intermediate School District in Ann Arbor, Michigan in 2019 after the founders realized the need in our community for children to learn switch skills which will translate into other useful life skills.  TTB has been funded in part by the Dance Marathon at University of Michigan.  With the COVID pandemic in 2020, the TTB was transformed into a virtual event. Some of what was learned during the pandemic enhanced the program and was carried forward in future years.  

In 2021, May We Help in Cincinnati joined our team and started a TTB branch to benefit children in their area.
