Tool Donations

SEAC’s Tool Shed happily accepts tool donations! Your generosity allows us to keep delivering on this program’s mission of making tools accessible to anyone who desires to make repairs to their homes and cars and an impact on their community.

All tools can be dropped off at our storefront, 1255 University Ave, Rochester, NY 14607. You will be provided with a receipt for your tax deductions. The South East Area Coalitions is a 501(c)3 non-profit that has been advocating for our neighborhoods, communities, and residents since 1968!

If you have any questions or want to get in touch about a potential donation, please email us at toolshed@seacrochester.org or give us a call at 585-271-TOOL (8665).
