@amber Well, there really is nothing going on in my area that would even remotely qualify. Our HS STEM is actually well funded and does not really lack anything. Sadly enough our local junior college lacks any kind of engagement. A few of my colleagues and associates tried to get at least a facsimile of a repair cafe of the ground but it all frizzled away due to an unbelievable  lack of interest. People here are just not into repair, reducing or repurposing. We are still heavy into replacing. We suffer form severe myopia and do not grasp what‘s coming at us. Personally, I would try and see if there is anything like a tool library that is in existence or at least planned around your local area. I am certain that those folks would and could use your generous help. On a national level, Robin Ingenthron does some pretty good stuff with cooperatives in Mexico and some African nations as well as Coco Henkerson at cocothegeek.com who really rocks it in Atlanta.

Just my 2 cents….
