We tackle TWO big issues in our community -

1. Waste Output by Industry and Individuals is increasing and one time usage is filling the landfill quickly and people are overwhelmed with what to do with materials that no longer serve a purpose in their home.

2. Affordable materials & resources are needed for our schools and community. Teachers are spending their own personal money to outfit and educate our children.

Diverting waste from the landfill and filling the mind field.

CREATIVE REUSE :

the process of reImagining already manufactured products or materials into new, often artistic or functional items. This practice can included things like upcycing, which is the process of taking something that would otherwise be considered waste and giving it a new value. Creative Reuse can also be seen as a way to reduce waste and promote sustainability.

Providing a materials redistribution system that will divert artable - usable materials donated by industry and individuals in order to meet the needs of educators, artists and creatives at affordable cost. Increasing the circular economy of materials in our community.

Connecting Educators to materials at no cost to them and working to help them implement curriculum that enhances creative conservation in the classroom and beyond.

Participating in community outreach programs that educate the public about the importance of reducing waste through reuse.

Providing both practical and creative ways to repurpose materials in everyday life.
