    Sonnhalter, Cleveland Habitat for Humanity Partner for Ninth Tool Drive

    July 16, 2018
    More than $220,000 worth of tools, building materials, appliances and other items have been donated since the first drive in 2010.

    CLEVELAND – Construction, industrial and MRO communications firm Sonnhalter is again partnering with the Greater Cleveland Habitat for Humanity for the ninth annual Sonnhalter Tool Drive this August. 

    Organizations, businesses and manufacturers are encouraged to donate new and gently used tools, as well as cabinets, sinks, building materials and appliances, to the Sonnhalter Tool Drive between Wednesday, Aug. 1 and Friday, Aug. 31, to benefit Habitat for Humanity’s cause of eliminating substandard housing.

    Affiliates of Habitat for Humanity individually work with participants to sponsor fundraising activities such as tool drives. The Sonnhalter Tool Drive strives to engage businesses and organizations to look through warehouses for extra inventory and overstocked tools or items, as well as the community to look through their workbenches, storage lockers, basements and garages for duplicated or no-longer-needed tools and items to donate.

    “At last year’s Tool Drive, we were very excited by the community’s response in donating more than $30,000 worth of tools, building materials, appliances and other items, bringing the total to more than $220,000 donated since our efforts began in 2010,” said Matt Sonnhalter, vision architect at Sonnhalter. “This year, with the help of our generous community, we’re looking forward to increasing that total, and we encourage businesses to clean out their extra inventory, overstocked materials and demo models, and donate to this very worthy cause.”

    The Greater Cleveland Habitat for Humanity has completed more than 200 homes since 1988 and today engages 2,000 volunteers, who provide more than 71,000 hours of service per year to Cleveland’s most distressed neighborhoods. The donated items will be used for Habitat for Humanity projects or will be sold at one of the organization’s ReStore locations. Proceeds from ReStore sales are used to help Habitat build and rehabilitate homes for those in need.

    Tools and materials can be shipped to Attn: Tool Drive, Sonnhalter, 1320 Sumner Ave., Suite 200, Cleveland, OH 44115.
