Charity Partner
Before, during, and after the festival, 10% of the proceeds from sculpture sales, as well as proceeds from Great Scrap Run 8k sign-ups, will be given back to a different local charity that ScrapFest decides to work with each year.
For 2024, we’re donating to:
Lansing $ave
Our charity partner this year is Lansing SAVE!
Lansing SAVE is a post-secondary education savings program for the Lansing School District. In the fall semester, all incoming kindergarten students are automatically enrolled in an account at the Michigan State University Federal Credit Union (MSUFCU).
Parents, guardians, and students can contribute throughout elementary, middle, and high school at any MSUFCU branch or during monthly financial education lessons, provided by MSUFCU. Students may use their Lansing SAVE accounts after high school graduation for any post-secondary education, such as a training program for the skilled trades or college. Lansing SAVE complements the Lansing Promise scholarship programs to prepare our students for post-secondary education opportunities.

10% of sculpture sales from the silent auction, along with proceeds from registrations for the Great Scrap Run, will go to Lansing SAVE.
