    Cool Looking for free craft supplies for Local Boys and Girls Club

    Does anyone know of sites that could help me obtain craft supplies that I can use with the children at the club? I volunteer there a few times a month and I want to do a project that shows our neighborhood's support of our troop's fighting to keep us safe and free.Please remember that my budget is very low and any help would be of great importance and I know the kids would love all the help that they could get.


    Please email with the information @ [email protected] all replies will be answered. Thank you to everyone that can help.

    See if you can get a letter from the center with the tax identification or EIN number on it. Walmart does donations for non-profit organizations. Most stores are good about that. Look around at second hand stores (I get a lot of craft items there for Girl Scouts). Or just go door to door to businesses in your community. It has gotten to the point here, that when I walk in the door, they say uh oh she is here for something again!

    Good luck!

    Thank you guys for your help. I will try to get the board of members to give me a letter. I never thought about that. I will also check in the art and craft forum. Once again thank you very much.

    You could also see if you could put out a box to collect craft materials at the center. We do that at our school for our kids craft table. People put all kinds of odds and ends into it and we make crafts out of what we find there! Kind of fun cause you never know what you're gonna make.
