Board Report
|
At our last SCRAPPY Sunday, a co-worker from Goodwill came by to visit SCRAP. When they walked into the door her daughter's eyes lit up and sparkled.Genesis Webster is a third grade student at the Harvey Milk Academy.Genesis first roamed the aisles with "ooh"s and "aah"s. As soon as she did a quick survey of the items and took in all of the colors and textures in the SCRAP depot, Genesis moved to the crafting table to create to her heart's delight.
When people ask me why I take time to serve on the SCRAP Board, the answer is easy.It is because the volunteers and the staff create a wonderful place for young girls like Genesis to be amazed and explore their creativity.
Thank you to all the volunteers and staff members.

SCRAP is a nonprofit that serves thousands of teachers, artists, nonprofits and creative people. People like Beth, who uses SCRAP to find arts and crafts materials to work with homeless children while their parents are taking courses on how to re-enter the job market. Because of SCRAP, Beth is able to obtain affordable and even free materials, like paint, stickers, glue, pipe-cleaners and more, to use with the children. This December please consider making a financial gift to SCRAP to help us serve people like Beth. Here's what your donation will do:
- $1000 will sustain the SCRAP warehouse operations for one day, helping artists, teachers, nonprofits and individuals gather affordable materials
- $500 will fund a classroom field trip to SCRAP, including a creative reuse art project, inspiring future leaders of the green movement
- $250 will help host a free creative reuse activity at a community event, inspiring creativity in hundreds of children and adults
- $50 will provide free materials for one month for a San Francisco educator
- $25 will help SCRAP re-stock the free section for one day, including free binders, folders, cards and other materials
Please support SCRAP and help us divert more materials from landfill, educate and support more educators, and inspire more creativity in children and adults. Happy Holidays,
Shuai Chen

SCRAP Workshop -
|
Saturday, December 14th 1-4pm fee: $30
 Megumi and Monica are back again for their popular repurposing gift-wrapping workshop. They have new ideas to share as well as some of their favorite techniques from past workshops on how to transform SCRAP materials into holiday gift giving/ wrapping treasures: recycled floral bows, scrap tags, playing card gift boxes and other "made from scratch" packaging ideas. There will be time during the second half of the workshop to browse Scrap for materials to wrap, prep and get a head start on your personal holiday wrapping.
