Support RAD
Want to help RAD reuse more detritus?
You can donate bags to RAD so we can turn them into beautiful products!
We also accept Twistie Tie and Jigsaw Puzzle donations!
Currently RAD is only accepting in person donations in Bend, Oregon. But, soon we will be able to accept bags through the mail! Contact info@RADLLC.org to arrange for local donations!
