Our Story
In the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, Dave Haughs, a passionate woodworker and engineer, sought to uplift families in the Indianapolis community. Over eight weeks, he designed and released a series of woodworking projects, sharing reveal videos and assembly instructions. The initiative quickly gained traction, reaching beyond local borders to touch lives across the U.S. and even the UK. Recognizing the ongoing need for creative outlets and skill-building opportunities, Deeply Ingrained, Inc. was founded to provide underserved youth and individuals with woodworking experiences that foster creativity and learning.
