Dear Friends,
Nineteen years ago local students began to explore and create with Art From Scrap Reuse materials and learn what actions they can take to help the environment. Today those students are young adults facing environmental challenges that call out for creative solutions and personal commitments to reduce waste and pollution – and with our help they are ready to tackle those challenges.
Please join us as we continue to teach our children how to be positive stewards of our shared environment.
Happy Holidays and thank your for your support!
Sincerely,
Cay Sanchez Patrick Davis
Executive Director Board President
