Fix-It Repair Resources
We are committed more than ever to offering ways to empower people in their quest for self-sufficiency and to bring the community together.
We’ve compiled a list of resources to help you out, and if you really get stuck, email farrah@squamishcan.net and we’ll connect you with a volunteer expert who can answer your questions. Share your progress on social media using the hashtag #squamishrepairs and email us your before and after photos to highlight at the end of the week.
Start fixing, Squamish!
