Volunteer 'Fixers' Sought For Household Items Fix-It Clinics

Calling all fixers! The Syracuse Public Library is seeking individuals who are talented in small household item repair and are willing to share those skills with their neighbors.

This fall SPL hopes to host fix-it clinics, which would pair people with broken household items with volunteer fixers. These volunteers would guide participants through the repair process so they can repair the next one on their own, diverting fixable items from the landfill.

If you are knowledgeable in basic household item repair (lamps, fans, vacuums, clothing, etc.) and would like to share your skills, contact Becky at [email protected].

The first Fix-It Clinic in September would focus on fan repair.
