Park Tool launches community tool grant program

Published November 6, 2015

ST. PAUL, Minn. (BRAIN) — Park Tool has introduced a new program designed to help local non-profit cycling organizations get the repair products they need.

The Park Tool Community Grant Program will provide tools to 10 non-profit cycling programs. Each of the grant recipients will receive  than more $1,400 in Park Tool products including Park's Professional Mechanic tool kit, two repair stands and its Big Blue Book of Bicycle Repair.

"Over the years we've done our best to provide assistance to as many organizations as we could. The new grant program will help deserving non-profit organizations get the tools and repair stands they need to help them give back to their neighborhoods and communities. These community workshops, youth clubs and bicycle recycling programs do great work and we're delighted to be able to help with that work," said Eric Hawkins, Park Tool's president/owner and chief mechanic.

Applications for the grants will be accepted until December 31 at parktool.com/form/sponsorship-request. Winners will be announced in mid-January.
