GET INVOLVED

All Schools and Community Organizations – Put Tools In Schools cannot happen without the support of the educational system and the community. Our goal is to present students with career pathways in the trades through a hands on experience. The best opportunity to offer these career opportunities is at a school or community center. Join us by hosting a Trades Career Day, and in doing so, you will be supporting our students futures.
