GIVE STL DAY
May 7, 2026
Thank you for giving!
Because of your online and offline support, we raised more than $7,700 on Give STL Day! Plus, we were a $500 prize winner because of YOU—we had the most unique donors during the 1:00 PM hour for small nonprofits.
Thank you for helping us get out of this poopy situation! We love y'all!
If you missed your chance to give on Give STL Day, you can still donate today to help us with our operational costs and those unexpected expenses that keep our mission moving.
Help us get out of this 💩 situation!
Help us keep St. Louis sewing! Running a community space is a labor of love, but lately, it’s been a bit of a mess. Between wrestling with our plumbing issues and being closed for 1.5 weeks... we’re in a poopy situation.
Together, we can ensure that City Sewing Room stays functional, dry, and accessible for every maker in our city.
Where Your Support Goes
-
Keeping the Pipes (and Creativity) Flowing: Your donations cover the essential "un-glamorous" costs—like rent, utilities, and the recent wave of plumbing repairs—that provide a safe, creative home for our makers.
-
The $1,000 "Porcelain Patron" Goal: We aren't just talking metaphorically. A gift of $1,000 literally funds a full bathroom overhaul, including a brand-new, high-efficiency toilet and fresh supplies to replace our current "poopy situation."
-
Diverting Fabric, Not Funds: Every dollar helps us maintain our $2/lb Makers' Mart pricing. By covering our operational overhead, you ensure we can keep putting reclaimed textiles into the hands of creators instead of into landfills.
-
Accessible Education: Your support keeps the "valves" open for everyone by covering instructor costs and scholarships, ensuring class fees stay low even when maintenance costs run high.
Give today to make sure City Sewing Room starts the big day with a clean slate (and hopefully, a clear drain).
A special thank you to the St. Louis Community Foundation for their support and for capturing our story in our latest mission video.
