Contributing has rewarding benefits:
- Charity: Your contribution to this non-profit event is tax deductible. Left over clothing is donated to shelters in each city that hosts a swap.
- Community: The event brings together diverse contributors, artisans, volunteers, and do-it-yourself types, under a common idea that lasts well after the event is completed.
- Sustainability: Help break the cycle of throwaway through creative re-use.
- Recognition: There is no commerce inside the walls of an SORR, however we are glad to recognize your business in all awareness materials
