Scrap It Up is an all volunteer, non profit organization. We have our charter under the umbrella of the Kennedy Heights Arts Center, https://kennedyarts.org/ 

All proceeds, over our costs, are donated back to the local arts and “green” community.
Here’s some of our past projects:

We have an on going relationship with April Pandora at Eden Organic Gardens, https://www.edenurbangardens.com/about    

As fresh food, fruits and vegetables, are sometimes in short supply at food pantries, we have an agreement with April to buy fresh produce every week which she delivers to our local food pantry, The Caring Place,
