SCRAP's next chapter– our forever home!

As SCRAP approaches its 50th anniversary, we are more inspired than ever to build on this momentum and take SCRAP into its next chapter– a new home! 

For the last 25 years, SCRAP has been located within an SFUSD facility at 801 Toland St. in the Bayview District.  With the passage of Proposition B in November 2024, this building is slated to be demolished and rebuilt as a central kitchen for SFUSD, with construction tentatively scheduled to begin in late 2026. We are using this time to identify a forever home for SCRAP where we can thrive for the next 50 years.
