FABSCRAP is a New York-based circular economic nonprofit that collects, organizes and repurposes textile scraps from the city’s design offices, to divert as much unused material as possible from being landfilled or incinerated and maximize the value of unused fabric.
A large percentage of the tour proceeds go directly to FABSCRAP.
