The local library is doing the Repair Cafe!!! This is an initial event. Im hoping we can do something like this monthly once we get it going!!!
Repair Cafes are community events where people bring things to get fixed and maintained for free. Volunteers come to hang out, talk shop, and work on folks' items.
This is a mutual-aid event - So folks might be good at fixing bicycles but arent as good at mending jeans. So they might bring their jeans to get patched and then help tune a bicycle!
While my library has asked if I can help with desktop support (which I'm more than willing to do), I actually really like working on bicycles! So I let them know I could do that, too.
I'm at my bandwidth with creating and organizing things with the Free Fridges and Food Rescue, but I absolutely can join an volunteer on the days of if all I have to do is show up, hang out, and tinker on some repairs!
THIS IS SO EXCITING!!!

Jenna with her old laptop, now updated to GNU/Linux! She'd stopped using it some time ago because #Windows had become so slow that it was unusable. A project of our local #Library where I #Volunteer. We spent some time installing then a brief introduction to the basics of using #GNU #Linux and a few of the apps.
She was excited to have a working computer again and, bonus, touch screen worked perfectly which made her extra happy.

Today's @pixel_dailies reminded me of libraries... which are a wonderful resource! Show your local #library some love!
