The Protopasta Fil-anthropy Fund is proud to partner with the Whistle Crew, "a loose federation united by our love for 3D printing and community safety."
Across the nation, our communities' lives are threatened by the presence of ICE. The stories of suffering are endless as we watch our people be gassed, tackled, and shot in the streets of their own hometowns. With a desire to keep our people safe, a grassroots campaign has begun to provide whistles wherever and whenever they're needed. Stores quickly sold out of mass-produced whistles, so our communities put their heads together and designed a number of whistles that can be 3d printed.
The message is simple: Together, we keep our community safe.
- Three short blasts alerts the community of the presence of ICE agents.
- Long blasts indicate that ICE has detained someone. Form a crowd, stay loud.
We've answered the call to keep these printers fed, and allow anyone to contribute positively to the campaign. Even if you don't own a 3d printer, you, too, can gift material to maximize our impact. Your $20 purchase secures 1kg of PLA towards the production and distribution of whistles, up to 500 from each spool!
*Please note, Protoplant, Inc is a for-profit business, so your purchase is not tax-deductible.

----------
Protopasta is a small company comprised of caring people who are environmentally conscious and community-focused. We're a little obsessed with the things that matter to us like quality, creativity, independence, and doing the right thing. We see physical and social well-being as key components to unlocking creativity.
We don't overcommit to mass production for thin margins because we don't want to be consumed by making the same as everyone else, over and over again. We stay creatively limber by making new things every month, and we want to do extend this by identifying causes we can impact with our competency in making unique, cherished filaments. Focusing on a cause, together we can achieve anything!
While goals and results matter, so does the experience getting there. Even through strife, binding together for good can be a positive and uplifting experience where we overcome fear-mongering fascists. Does that make us punks? Hippies? We don't know, but it's what makes us, us.
We do our best work outside corporate constraints, though this uncapped creativity can serve the corporate world as well. If you can beat 'em, work with them, but that shouldn't happen at the sacrifice of your values!

Powerful for the presenter
Format: Paperback
My boss's boss recently told me that our organization's presentations are boring data dumps that make her wish she was somewhere other than there listening but not really hearing or caring about this slide and dreading the next. She suggested that since I was going to be doing a lot of presentations in the future I should avoid that method and do better presentations. I immediately sought advice from our best presenter and learned that his method came from his gut feelings about what worked better. He has good instincts but to codify what he explained I decided to buy a book to learn why his approach works. The closest book with an effective explanation I could find is "beyond bullet points". It captured and expanded on the instinct my new mentor explained so that I could now understand how to use the slides to supplement the story and how to interweave the data so the whole presentation is more meaningful and memorable. I recommend this book to anyone looking for more of an answer on how to improve their presentations and eliminate the data dump in bullet points.

Great for Presentation Education
Format: Paperback
It has been some time since I have utilized Beyond Bullet Points, but this is one text book that kept with me. The point of the book is to help a presenter get their point across to the audience through Powerpoint presentations, and the book does this well. I am sure there are editions other than this one at this point, and I would definitely recommend looking into them in order to keep up to date. Starting with this book is a great idea due to its simplicity.

great informational book
Format: Paperback
I had to buy this book for a graduate-level statistics course. I thought it was kinda silly at first, but it has been a great tool. It has beautiful graphics with fantastic step-by-step instructions and explanations on the whats and whys of tables and figures. I've made some great infographics with the help of this book. Highly recommend for anyone who ever has to present data in some form of fashion.
