Join our Team

Lancaster Creative Reuse (LCR) 501(c)(3) was established in 2009 by co-founders Jeannie Zeller and Andrea Stoner Leaman. Jeannie and Andrea saw the potential in untapped supply resources, generated by both individuals and businesses, that were often destined for landfills.

LCR currently employs a staff and manages a diverse group of 15-20 volunteers a year. This team, on average, manages approximately 1,000 lbs of donated material per week that would have otherwise gone to a landfill. Our volunteers are an integral part of LCR and help us process donations, price product, package orders, assist with public events, and more. 

Lancaster Creative Reuse  is an equal opportunity employer and affirmative action employer and does not discriminate in compliance with all applicable laws. We strongly encourage people of color, people with disabilities, veterans, women,people who are LGBT+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, nonbinary +) to apply.

Mission Statement:

Lancaster Creative Reuse promotes upcycling and cultivates creativity, sustainability, and community connections by circulating affordable excess materials to artists, educators and makers.
