Be a fix-it hero
Monday, January 23, 2023 by Tai Moses
If you’ve got a special set of skills – say, you’re a hand tool wizard, or you know your way around a sewing machine, or you’re the person your friends call when their email isn’t working – the city invites you to volunteer as a repair coach at one of its Fix-It Clinics. Volunteer coaches “work directly with clinic attendees to guide them in fixing their broken items. Fix-It Clinics are educational events, so teaching repair skills is your primary role as a volunteer coach.” In other words, you’ll be showing attendees how to repair their items, not just doing it for them. Sound like fun? The next clinic is Feb. 25. Read more and sign up here to volunteer.
