Summer Bonanza Success

The ToolBank is honored to be one of MadTree Brewing's 4 core charities. Our staff and fundraiser committee joined with Green Umbrella, Starfire Council and CityLink Center volunteers to help make Summer Bonanza a success and to raise money for all 4 nonprofits. MadTree donates a percentage of the profits from this event and distributes the funds to its 4 core charities. Thanks for brewing great beer and for your philanthropic spirit, MadTree!

United Way With Macy's Give Back Days

Corporate partners are a huge help when it comes to tackling large volunteer projects. This month, the United Way of Greater Cincinnati and Macy's teamed up to provide 300 volunteers to two sites of St. Joseph's Orphanage where they helped with facility maintenance, landscaping the grounds and painting the interior. See if you can spot the blue tools in the news coverage!
