A high school, so that these young adults can learn about the awesome advancements in science and so they can begin thinking of how it can change the world. Most high-school aged student's parents would have never even heard of 3D printers (and likely teachers too).

My younger sisters because they are all very creative and with a 3d printer, they would be able to do some very neat stuff.

I'd give it to hospitals in impoverished and war-torn regions, so prosthetic limbs and other medical devices could be printed to help people. That, and schools need them so badly!
