    Cool hi from Illinois

    Would like to introduce myself. I help a small group of physically challenged adults recycle donated items which enables them to have a paycheck.
    We have schools and village halls donate to us and, as our inventory grows we look for trusted outlets for cash. Any help is appreciated!
    Lisa

    Welcome from ur neighbor in ky. I like what u do, that is cool. I wished I was in a place where I could help out something like that, but currently I am not, as what little bit I scrap right now goes to paying bills, buying food, and keeping the woman happy lol. I hope that everything goes good for u, and maybe u will find some contacts on here.
    As for the info on scrapping, this is the best place u could have come to learn info, the place is full of it, as well as very smart and cool ppl that produce great insite on scrapping. As always have fun in what u do, and safty comes first

    I think Julie started out doing something similar. She did a bunch of reading about what was worth more, found a good buyer or two and started bring in more material.

    Here's her beginning;
