Why give?

  • Supplies are expensive. We believe access to affordable materials should never limit a person's creativity.

  • ReCraft has earned Candid's Platinum Seal of Transparency, given to less than 1% of U.S. nonprofits.

  • Since 2019, ReCraft has returned more than a quarter-million pounds of materials and supplies to the community.

  • ReCraft directly engages over 10,000 youth annually with creative, sustainable programming each year.

  • In the past year, ReCraft has provided free classroom materials to over 100 local schools.

  • ReCraft is South Carolina's first creative reuse center. We believe every community deserves a creative reuse resource.

 FAQs

  • With your help, ReCraft can continue its creative reuse programming like the ones listed above. All donations are pooled in ReCraft's general operating fund, then we adjust specific program funding based on community giving and feedback. For more details about our activities, please view our most recent 990. (Our level of transparency has earned Candid's highest nonprofit rating!)

  • Think of these updates like two metal cans tied together with string: a way for our executive director to share not-quite-public plans, and to get feedback from folks who love ReCraft most. A current examples is plans to reformat the retail shop in 2025.

  • The Bunny Brunch is an annual opportunity to gather with key ReCraft supporters, celebrate shared achievements, and learn about what's next. We expect the inaugural Bunny Brunch to take place on a Saturday in April 2025.

  • Our executive director would love to talk to you about a dedicated gift! We've identified several high-impact initiatives that need funding to make them happen -- and always open to brainstorming. Please contact grant@recraftgvl.org.

  • We are so thankful for your gift!

    While the Sustainer campaign is for recurring monthly donors, please know that one-time donors will receive the same recognition and benefits as Sustainers for the year following their gift.

  • Donors will be recognized by name in our annual report as well as on a Sustainer “cloud” in the shop. If you wish to give anonymously or in honor of someone else, there is a place to note that during checkout.

    Please note, we've adopted Community-Centric Fundraising principles. This includes a commitment to publicly recognize all donors equally.

  • We know you're not in it for the prizes (and we wouldn’t want to spoil your tax deduction with items of tangible value). That said, within 90 days of becoming a Sustainer, you'll receive some fun promotional goodies to show your support and share with friends.
