Be a Tool Day of Service
Sep 8 all-day
Be A Tool 20182018 marks the 8th year of the Neighborhood Rehab Project’s annual Be A Tool Day of Service. Neighborhood Rehab Project continues to provide a platform of opportunity for all ages, skill levels and passions to come together for the common purpose of helping a neighbor in need on the 2nd Saturday of September. It is also an opportunity for local businesses to give back to the community in tangible ways by volunteering services, supplies or their time for the day.

Focusing on safe, dry and warm issues for elderly, disabled, veteran or financially burdened homeowners, project examples include decks, stairs, doors, windows and roof repair.

The date for this year’s Be A Tool Day of Service is September 8, 2018 but registration is now open!
