My Project

As part of our school's NCCER Core and Carpentry 1 classes, students are introduced to all aspects of home building. We like to put professional grade tools in the hands of our students to get professional grade results.

The tools I have requested include: a clamp, wire strippers, and crimp tools.

Our students work hard to build projects that both teach them how to build, and benefit the community. To date, our students have built: a community bike shop, community fridge shelters, projects to beautify and improve our school, and little free libraries.

Your donation to this project will give us the tools we need to teach students the skills they need to be better prepared for work and life.
