The call is out for tech savvy men to help brighten the lives of children.
Mandurah Men's Shed was "moving more into the technological world" and was looking for more members with technology experience, according to chair Allan Lewis.
Mr Lewis also thwarted recent reports that the Mandurah Men's Shed's operating premises were not big enough for their requirements.
"This is not the case," he said. "We operate under license from the John Tonkin College to occupy their now defunct manual arts rooms. This area of 500 square metres comfortably caters for the production of children's toys and furniture which is the main thrust of our operation."
Mandurah Men's Shed, which was formerly Kim's Toyboys, has been part of Mandurah for more than 20 years and has built up a reputation for being a strong supporter of the community.
"Despite the COVID-19 lockdown, last year we still managed to donate more than 200 wooden items to community groups for the benefit of disadvantaged families," Mr Lewis said.
"Every year we give away up to 2,000 small wooden toys on wheels to children at events such as the Mandurah Children's Festival."
Toys are sold to cover operating costs. They will next be available to the public at a stall at the Mandjar Markets on Easter Sunday.
Grants are an essential part of non organisations and the Men's Shed took advantage of a Lotterywest grant to secure a covered trailer.
The organisation's current project is seeking funding for a CNC router.
Mandurah Men's Shed is currently home to 40 people who enjoy some camaraderie while contributing to a good cause.
It operates from 9.30am to 2.15pm, Tuesday to Friday.
"We welcome inquiries for membership from people who have time on their hands and want to feel they are doing something worthwhile," Mr Lewis said.
