    Description

    Help mend, repair, and reduce waste — Volunteer at a Fix-It Clinic!

    Volunteer for Greater Minnesota Fix-It Clinics!

    Do you have a talent for fixing, tinkering, or mending items? Reuse Minnesota invites skilled individuals to volunteer at the upcoming Fix-It Clinics across Greater Minnesota, helping residents repair their items, reduce waste, and share valuable skills within their communities. Volunteers play a vital role in making these events possible, and Reuse Minnesota is actively recruiting individuals who can lend their time and talents to support this growing network of community repair events. Interested? Fill out the volunteer interest form.

    Reuse Minnesota is working with five partners to establish fix-it clinics in Greater Minnesota to support residents with repairing their items, reducing waste, and sharing skills within the community. We are seeking volunteer fixers, tinkerers, carpenters, and menders, as well as folks who like to help with general event needs, to make this possible!

    Partners

    • Chisago County
    • Dodge County
    • Olmsted County
    • Pope/Douglas Solid Waste Management
    • Stearns History Museum

    If you are interested in sharing your skills in one or more of these regions, please fill out the following form. Events will take place about once a quarter to start, with the potential to increase in frequency in the future.

    If you are an adult who knows of a youth who may want to get involved, please fill out a form for them too! There will be a link at the end of this form to submit an additional response. Please note that youth under the age of 18 may be required to be accompanied by an adult. If you have any questions, please contact Reuse Minnesota at fixit@reusemn.org.

    This work is made possible through a Statewide Waste Reduction and Reuse grant from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency.
