The Tool Thrift Shop
Some of the very best services are right in our own neighborhood, like Fairport's Tool Thrift Shop. Here is the perfect place to donate tools and hardware that you no longer need. When you make the Tool Thrift Shop your choice, you will continue the efforts of supporting the community in so many ways.
This retail store was founded by the Fairport Baptist Homes, five years ago, with the mission to give back to the community. With the support of many volunteers, proceeds made by the thrift store are donated to the Senior Options for Independence (SOFI). SOFI provides unwavering support to its seniors, age 60 and above, who wish to still live at home. For many seniors, having the ability to stay home and be connected to professionally trained care coordinators gives them the security and confidence to thrive. SOFI also offers transportation services for the everyday needs for seniors, as well as, the necessary medical appointments.
What a wonderful place the Tool Thrift Shop is, for not only the tool enthusiast, but the community too. You will find tools at very affordable prices while making a contribution to seniors. The Tool Thrift Shop is a volunteer-run, retail shop. For many seniors, it also gives them a sense of pride by volunteering in the Tool Thrift Shop so they too, continue the efforts to support the community. Over 30,000 man hours have generated $250,000 for SOFI.
So when you are Spring cleaning and find that tool you never knew you had, stop in to the Tool Thrift Shop and make a donation. While there, shop around and you might see that one tool you have been waiting for as well. At the end of the day, you will leave knowing these incredible services will continue for these seniors through your support.
