SCRAP Creative Reuse
Mission
SCRAP’s mission is to inspire creative reuse and environmentally sustainable behavior by providing educational programs and affordable materials to the community.
Bottom Line for Portland
SCRAP recognizes that building community is an important part of creating and spreading sustainable practices. 89% of every dollar donated or spent at SCRAP goes back into supporting all of SCRAP’s programs. These funds help SCRAP expand access and knowledge, inspire environmentally sustainable behavior through creative reuse, and share our mission with more members of our community.
