EAT OUR DUST FUNDRAISER
The SJLSSC Wood Shop is growing, so the group has launched the “Eat Our Dust 2.0” fundraiser—marking our second system upgrade since opening in 2022! We need to raise approximately $125,000 for a new air filtration system to keep our crafters breathing clean, safe air. Between this year-long campaign and potential grants, every dollar helps. Please consider donating at the front desk, earmarked “Air Filtration Wood Shop.”
