Building skills, connecting lives
and empowering people through woodworking

Our Mission is simple yet profound:

To empower veterans, first responders, and specialized groups through woodworking.
We do this by providing access to programs that are designed to educate, build camaraderie and deepen a sense of purpose.

Our areas of focus

  • Veterans

    We provide veterans access to a 6-week woodworking class that gives them a meaningful way to channel creativity, reduce stress, and regain a sense of purpose and accomplishment. Veterans are also gifted a membership to the Workshop to continue their wood working journey.

  • First Responders

    Providing wood shop access to first responders ensures they have a supportive space to decompress, manage stress, and connect with others in a creative, encouraging environment.

  • Children

    Woodworking offers children a unique opportunity to develop fine motor skills, boost creativity, and enhance problem-solving abilities while building confidence and fostering patience through hands-on projects.

  • Neurodiverse Individuals

    The Inspired Lumber Project prioritizes inclusivity, offering tailored woodworking experiences for individuals with developmental disabilities and neurodivergent needs.

“Woodworking is more than just a craft—
it is a powerful tool for building skills and fostering community.”
