Donate Money
Financial donations in 2026 will help us get established in our new location. Financial donations will always help keep our store and services financially accessible while also ensuring our staff are paid fairly.
Donate Stuff
Donated supplies will be processed and prepared for resale in our store. Selling donated materials is part of our reuse mission, and also part of how we will financially support our education and innovation goals.
Donate Time
Preparing donated items to be accessible for reuse is a time and labor intensive process! Volunteers are a key component to making creative reuse possible. Sign up to sort donations or become a Neighborhood Collector.
