What we aim to solve
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Tool Lending
The Tool Lending program provides access to over $450,000 worth of tools, yes - that means items such as hammers, rakes, etc. - for use in community service projects, and is a benefit of membership at the ToolBank. Fellow non-profits, schools and faith based groups are eligible to join. Whether you are renovating/maintaining a park, painting a mural, building a playground or organizing a community clean-up, the ToolBank can equip your volunteers for a successful project. In 2015, the Tool Lending Program equipped over 49,000 volunteers to complete more than 2100 service projects in every corner of metro Atlanta.
Please note, the Tool Lending Program is not open to individuals or non-charitable use. So, if the project is conducted on an individual’s property and is for personal gain rather than meeting a community need, our program would not be the right fit.

Last updated: 04/06/2022GuideStar partnered with Equity in the Center - an organization that works to shift mindsets, practices, and systems to increase racial equity - to create this section. Learn more
- We review compensation data across the organization (and by staff levels) to identify disparities by race.
- We ask team members to identify racial disparities in their programs and / or portfolios.
- We disaggregate data to adjust programming goals to keep pace with changing needs of the communities we support.
- We employ non-traditional ways of gathering feedback on programs and trainings, which may include interviews, roundtables, and external reviews with/by community stakeholders.
- We have long-term strategic plans and measurable goals for creating a culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
- We use a vetting process to identify vendors and partners that share our commitment to race equity.
- We seek individuals from various race backgrounds for board and executive director/CEO positions within our organization.
- We have community representation at the board level, either on the board itself or through a community advisory board.
- We help senior leadership understand how to be inclusive leaders with learning approaches that emphasize reflection, iteration, and adaptability.
- We engage everyone, from the board to staff levels of the organization, in race equity work and ensure that individuals understand their roles in creating culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
