About
Fix-It Austin is hosting its first-ever Toy Hospital! Celebrate the holiday season with us by putting your repair skills to work to teach adults and children alike to repair beloved toys. We'll need Fixers with sewing savvy, as well as confident electronics tinkerers, bike experts, and everything in between. Since it's our first time hosting this type of event, we don't entirely know what to expect!
We will bring tools and equipment for common repairs that you may use. You may also bring your own if you prefer!
We would love for you to promote the event in your communities. Anyone who is interested in attending can register through EventBrite.
We are so grateful to all our volunteers. We couldn't put these events on without you!
