- Toolbank abstract "ToolBank is a registered term used to identify the nonprofit tool lending program model created by the Atlanta Community ToolBank. A ToolBank amplifies the impact of its local charitable sector by lending tools to organizations for use in volunteer service projects and facility maintenance/repair projects. A common ToolBank inventory of equipment might include tools for landscaping, carpentry, plumbing, masonry as well as power tools, ladders, and others. The Atlanta Community ToolBank is currently the largest ToolBank in existence, and lends more than 140 tool types to Atlanta's nonprofit organizations. The available inventory of the Atlanta Community ToolBank can be found here. The Atlanta Community ToolBank equips more than 50,000 volunteers per year with its available tool inventory.The ToolBank program model differs from the more common tool lending library model in that the ToolBank inventory is not open to individuals. The ToolBank inventory is designated for the purpose of increasing the impact of the nonprofit sector and less formalized grassroots organizations. Typical users of ToolBank resources include faith-based organizations, public schools, neighborhood organizations, public/private partnerships with community-oriented missions, social clubs with a service mission, gardening clubs, and others. Proof of charitable intent must be provided before accessing ToolBank tools.The ToolBank performs three primary functions:1. Tool Lending: The ToolBank lends tools of all kinds for use in volunteer projects, facility maintenance and improvement projects, community improvement events, and special events.2. Tool Advocacy: ToolBank staff advocates for the complete and timely return of all borrowed tools, to guarantee the long-term sustainability of available inventory. Staff also seeks compensation for lost tools and tools returned late.3. Tool Maintenance: The ToolBank performs routine maintenance and repairs on all equipment to ensure good condition and to extend the lifespan of the inventory. This function is typically performed by volunteers and community service workers.Through these three functions, local community organizations may benefit by:ensuring that all participating volunteers are properly equipped;engaging larger volunteer groups;performing a broader scope of service projects;engaging more highly skilled volunteers; andeliminating tool purchase, repair, and storage costs. ToolBank is a registered mark of the Atlanta Community ToolBank. The Atlanta Community ToolBank granted a Right to License to ToolBank USA in 2008. ToolBank USA is a nonprofit organization created in February 2008, charged with the successful nationwide replication of the ToolBank program model. ToolBank USA was launched by a founding grant from The Home Depot Foundation.".
