Love Your Block is known for providing mini grants to residents and community partners in an effort to make needed improvements, reducing blight and encouraging positive changes within local neighborhoods.

The organization will be at the Keep Jackson Beautiful Earth Day Festival collecting gently used tools for its new Mobile Tool Shed. This new endeavor will offer residents the tools needed to complete community projects all across the Jackson area.

Tools needed include shovels, rakes, paint rollers, brushes, landscaping tools, hammers, drills and other home improvement items.

If you have any gently used tools that you would like to donate, bring those to the Earth Day Festival, which begins at 9 am on Saturday, April 20. The festival will take place at the Jackson Fairgrounds located at 800 South Highland Avenue.

For information about the Mobile Tool Shed or donations, contact Love Your Block at (731) 422-7033.
