Help the tool library finish the Annex

Support the North Portland Tool Library

Guess what? The North Portland Tool Library has received a generous offer of a matching grant for $2,800 to help complete the beautiful Tool Library Annex! Currently, the Annex walls are up and the roof is on. We’re asking you, our loyal NPTL members, to help us match that $2,800 to get the Annex fully completed and functional.

Your donation options abound!

You can donate via our PayPal page (click the donate button below)
You can opt for the low-tech, personal touch and bring in a check or cash during tool library open hours (Saturdays from 9am – 2pm, and Tuesdays from 5pm – 7:30pm)
You can drop a check-payable to North Portland Community Works-in the mail to:
