Summer of Service is back, hurrah! We will be adding some additional volunteering opportunities throughout the summer to give all our new volunteers more ways to participate. Check out the details of each event to see what we will be processing! 

These are indoor and seated events located at Austin Creative Reuse in Windsor Park. You will be helping out in a room that can be a bit warm in the summer, so we suggest you keep this in mind when dressing for the event.

Austin Creative Reuse is a Austin based non-profit that aims to foster conservation, education, and community building through the creative reuse of old items and the reuse of creative items! We take in ~50,000 lbs. of donations every month and we rely on volunteers to help us process all those donations! Most items we resell at our center at very accessible price points, but we also donate supplies to schools, and attend community events to teach our youngest generations about creative reuse.

Help us find new homes for all the beautiful vintage paper ephemera we receive! Perfect for vintage obsessed artists and novices alike. You’ll help us identify special items to package individually and sort & price the rest by category and size. We will be sorting items such as old newspapers, magazines, postcard, maps, books and so, so much more! Plus - as a volunteer you get first dibs on buying any cool pieces you find! If you've ever been curious about our vintage process this is a great way to get a behind the scenes look. We do require participants for this event to be 16 and up. Sign up here.
