OCTOBER Dual Purposer Partner of the Month:
MN TOOL LIBRARY

The Minnesota Tool Library is a cooperative, volunteer-driven nonprofit that offers our community Access Over Ownership. We believe you don’t need to privately own costly tools that clutter cupboards, basements and garages... it's a waste of space and resources that could be better utilized by building in community. Instead we share tools and trade skills with one another to empower eachother and help create a more resilient and equitable community. MTL'ers enjoy low-cost access to the tools we need to repair and maintain our homes, build our businesses, and invest in our communties - by borrowing items from our shared library. It's as simple as checking out a book and our inventory is vast. Moreover, we engage eachother to expand our collective skill set - offering both formal classes and informal mentoring and project advice. Everyone from novice to skilled craftsperson is welcome and we'll help you along the way. Whether you're looking to tackle some home-improvement tasks, enjoy a hobby, build a business, or try that Pinterest project - we have the tools, shared space, and support to help make your DIY dreams a reality.

EVENTS in OCTOBER!

DUAL PURPOSE is the community outreach vehicle for Dual Citizen Brewing Co., created to turn a neighborhood brewery into a catalyst for meaningful change. Deeply rooted on both sides of the Mississippi River, we aim to provide accessible space, essential resources, and long-term partnerships to local nonprofit organizations, working to strengthen our shared community. Through intentional partnerships, and with substantial annual grants and annual community investment, we help local organizations grow, connect, and thrive. We open the taproom and gathering areas as a hub to these partners and community initiatives to remove the barriers to program delivery, fundraising, and community organizing.

Our vision is for a Twin Cities where shared purpose fuels shared progress. Where every partner, every patron, and every neighbor has the opportunity to meaningfully contribute to a more connected, equitable, and thriving community.

**We are a taproom and organization that serves.**
