Our Mission
Restoring Rainbows San Jose is a branch of an international nonprofit that strives to build a sustainable future and spread creativity among children.
We collect, upcycle, and donate art and school supplies to ensure that every child has the tools to grow regardless of their circumstances.
Our Restoring Process
From donation bins, to childrens' hands, our restoring process makes sure every art supply gets a second life.
1. Collect
We collect old, lightly used, and new art and school supplies through drives at local libraries and schools.
2. Restore
Collected school supplies are sanitized, restored, and repackaged into usable condition.
3. Donate
Restored school supplies are donated to children at homeless shelters, foster care centers, and mental health service centers.

"Thanks to your generous back-to-school donation, the students at FSH were provided with great quality backpacks and school supplies to start the school year off strong, confident, and ready to learn. It was heartwarming to see the children’s faces light up up as they looked over the backpacks and pencil cases laid out on the tables."
