We’re proud to share that SC Johnson, A Family Company has made a $70,000 investment in Pullman Tech Workshop to support our Handyman Service & Building Maintenance Training Program.

This contribution is more than funding. It’s a commitment to workforce development, hands-on training, and creating pathways to opportunity within our community.

Our partnership with SC Johnson goes beyond financial support. Throughout the year, their team consistently shows up participating in service days, supporting community cleanups, building picnic tables on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, and helping restore veteran monuments here in Pullman.

That level of engagement reflects a shared belief: that strong communities are built through both investment and action.

Because of this support, we’re able to continue equipping individuals with real-world skills, expanding access to training, and creating opportunities that extend far beyond the classroom.

We are grateful for this partnership and look forward to continuing the work together.

This past Saturday (April 25th), we hosted an incredible Mushroom Inoculation Workshop and it was a success! 🍄🌱

Participants got hands-on experience learning the full process of inoculating logs, guided by our amazing instructor Yva, with Nick demonstrating the step-by-step techniques to bring it all to life.

By the end of the workshop, everyone walked away with their own inoculated log ready to grow and continue the process at home. That’s what we love most: turning knowledge into something tangible.

Thank you to everyone who came out, showed up, and got their hands dirty with us. This is what community learning looks like 💪🏾🌿

More to come…
