FabMo Inc

FabMo is a volunteer-run 501(c)(3) public charity (EIN 27-0658796) that rescues high-quality designer material samples—fabrics, wallpapers, tiles, leathers and similar items—from commercial showrooms and redistributes them for creative reuse by teachers, artists, makers and community groups. The organization operates a warehouse in Sunnyvale where volunteers sort and prepare materials for the public, runs twice-monthly in-person shopping events, and conducts weekly pick-ups from showroom partners (approximately 60 showrooms). FabMo reports diverting roughly 70 tons of materials annually, supporting schools, local artists, and sustainability education programs. FabMo has operated as a public charitable nonprofit since 2010, is governed by a board and committees, and is sustained primarily by donations and volunteer labor. Recent financials show modest operating revenue and reserve levels consistent with a small, community-focused reuse nonprofit.
