We love our volunteers!

Last year SCRAP volunteers contributed nearly 7,000 hours of their time and energy to help us fulfill our mission. Most volunteers are scheduled for one 3-hour shift in the store each week, but you are welcome to sign up for more.

Volunteers do things like:

• Sort and organize the SCRAP store
• Receive and process material donations
• Assemble To Go Kits and Paper Packs that we sell
• Help out with field trips and birthday parties
• Volunteer at SCRAP events
