June 7, 201411 yr Laguna Tools sure gives back, you cannot say they are not involved in their community and communities around our nation. Because they are, and in a big way. Laguna Tools has a School Program where on occasion they'll review applications from woodworking shop classes typically entered by the shop teacher, and Laguna tools will review their needs and then proceed to do what they can. With shop classes going by the wayside in our middle and high schools, the budgeting is not always there, and typically the suits upstairs have no idea the importance of a hands on shop class for many of our kids. Not every kid is wired to be an office worker, or a software developer, many kids are wired to work with their hands, and many school admins just don't understand this. So to have Laguna Tools step the way they do, on behalf on our kids, is incredible, thank you Laguna Tools! Click on image at left to view the McKinley School Story and Laguna's help.

June 8, 201411 yr Thanks for doing this Laguna Tools, and for being a sponsor to our site as well. In a time where budget cuts in our schools is more common than it should be, it's great to see a company like Laguna Tools step up the way you have. I don't have any kids myself, but i do have some nephews/nieces that are of middle school age.Thank youCharles NichollsSite Hostnicholls61@att.netProud supporter of The Wounded Warrior Project, Homes For Our Troops and the NRAhttp://www.etsy.com/shop/nichollswoodworks

June 8, 201411 yr Wow - Laguna Tools really stepped up to the plate on this one. Â I read the article mentioned above and was facinated by it. Â They are 100% correct in saying that it is sad that "SHOP" classes have been taken out of most schools. Â These classes are invaluable for students to learn tasks that will save them time and money all the days of their lives. Â Thanks again, Laguna.Fredaka Pop's Shopwww.pops-shop.comScroll Saw Forum Host
