Do you have a broken home appliance that you would like to fix? Bring it to the Fix-It Clinic and a Coach will sit down with you to troubleshoot and guide you through fixing it. Registration Required.

The concept of a Fix-It Clinic is simple. People are given help fixing their broken items, which empowers people by making them more self-reliant and, by fixing the broken item, it does not go into a landfill while you go and buy another one, thus feeding into our rampant consumer-culture.

You'll also meet some really nice people who just want to help you help yourself and fix some broken items along the way.
