North Richmond Mobile Tool Library
The North Richmond Mobile Tool Library is a free service that lends tools to North Richmond residents and North Richmond-serving non-profit organizations and public agencies. We bring our tool library to spots around North Richmond, with the goal of reducing blight on public and private properties.
Not a resident of North Richmond? Check out the Richmond Tool Library, which serves all Richmond and North Richmond residents!
