Upcycle your Spring Cleaning

June 5, 2019 by ITA Staff

Donate your Household items to ITA

ITA supports the creative reuse of art materials and other household items. A common therapeutic theme is transformation and harnessing of any sort of life event into a positive experience or learning opportunity.  Help us share this incredible metaphor with our clients by providing us with the materials. We are collecting a range of gently used materials, listed below. A donation box will be available downstairs to deposit items starting June 15th.

If you don’t have additional household items to donate, but you would still like to support us, you can also purchase a number of needed items from our Amazon Charity List.

Thank you for your continued support of our work at ITA.

    I look forward to donating materials that otherwise might have gone into landfill. During what hours will we have access to your donation box?
