Dykes with Drills Operating Fund 2019
Donation protected
Hi! We are Dykes With Drills.
We call ourselves Dykes With Drills because we think it's empowering to use the word dyke, and because we love using drills. We are a group of builders inclusive of all gender non conforming, trans people and allies.
Something about us is that we LOVE creating.
We love taking a dream and turning it into a reality. We love building with all kinds of materials like wood, metal, and plastics, and learning the skills to do so.
We also LOVE being self expressed. We love our bodies, we love our minds, we love our hearts, and we love how we are the source of POWERFUL creative energy.
We welcome anyone and everyone who wants these skills for themselves and their communities to reach out and participate with us!
Here at Dykes with Drills we are committed to 4 goals:
1. Giving people independence and confidence when using power tools
2. Creating communities of people through project based collaboration
3. Learning from our mistakes
4. Providing all of this at an affordable price
By donating, you are helping to fund:
1. Scholarships with POC preference, making our programming accessible to those in financial strain
2. Material costs, maintenance of tools and part replacements, assuring our tools are safe and effective
3. Paying our workshop instructors and assistants, giving value to their trade skills and sustaining long term staff
4. Growing our reach, helping us create workshops and events in other cities and states! See where we're headed.
If you want more information or to get in contact with us directly, email us at [email redacted].
With love,
Dykes with Drills
