Habitat's tool-lending shed opens for 2011 season

Struthers

The Community Tool Shed, a project of Youngstown’s Neighborhood Improvement Corps, has opened its doors for the 2011 season.

The tool shed is located within the Habitat for Humanity Re-Store, 480 Youngstown-Poland Road. The shed is a lending “library” of common household tools for painting, maintenance and yard work.

Due to the limitations of the grant by which the shed was funded, only those Youngstown city residents who are elderly, disabled, low income (200 percent of the poverty level or less), or a neighborhood or nonprofit service organization located in the city may borrow the tools at this time.
