Donate Goods

Think of us if you are downsizing, changing focus, moving, or helping someone divest their accumulated fiber equipment and supplies! We welcome donations of yarn, thread, fiber, notions, tools, patterns, books, and equipment. Whether we add your items to our class and/or library supplies or sell them in the SEFAA Shop, donating to SEFAA is the perfect way to ensure your treasures go to an appreciative new home. 


To donate, please call or email our Arts & Operations Manager at 678.235.4328 or info@fiberartsalliance.org to set up a drop-off appointment. Then, click here to download and complete a Donation Confirmation Form for your tax records (optional). Bring the form with you when you bring your donation, and we’ll sign and date it to acknowledge receipt of your items.


Our storage and Shop space is limited, so we do not accept magazines and, occasionally, we decline to accept certain items. If we can’t take your items, please consider:


  • All supplies and equipment:
  • Scraplanta: They collect and reuse arts and crafts materials.
  • Goodwill: Takes craft supplies, clothing, and linens.
