<div><a href="https://smithing.ca" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Crazyhouse Fabrications</a> is a small blacksmithing and fabrication business based in Chatham-Kent, ON. Through blacksmithing and casting demonstrations, hands-on classes, and handmade products, we share traditional skills and crafts with people of all ages in the local community.

<div>We also organize <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/1836428391008057/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Duncan's Faire</a>, our annual historical faire, bringing people together to enjoy history, crafts, and community.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We want to keep these activities going and make sure we have a solid foundation to support them. To help us do that, we're working toward establishing Crazyhouse Fabrications as a not-for-profit organization.
</div><img alt="" media_type="null" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/108953495_1791860686802839_r.jpg" width="100%" />
<div>Our first goal is $300 toward the initial filing and administrative costs involved in establishing a not-for-profit structure. That step will help us better convey our values as a community-focused organization and open up many opportunities for outreach and funding.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>UPDATE 2026/10/15: FIRST GOAL REACHED!</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our next goal will be to raise another $200 to put towards essential tool repair. ️ We're in need of a new crucible since the last one recently met an unfortunate demise. Think we can reach $500?
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Once we reach that next milestone, we'll work toward other practical improvements that support what we do:
</div>
<ul>
<li><strong>Emergency Fund:</strong> If we can raise this, unexpected equipment breakdown won't be a complete show-stopper. (AKA don't-cry-over-spilt-refractory funds)
</li>
<li><strong>Advertising: </strong>We've heard it over and over: People don't know about us and didn't hear about the faire until it was over. A bit of funding will help more people discover our blacksmithing activities, classes, and events through online and print advertising (not to mention that pesky yearly website hosting fee)
</li>
<li><strong>Duncan's Faire: </strong>Our most ambitious goal -- contributing toward the supplies, signage, and other costs involved in putting on our annual historical faire.
</li>
</ul><img alt="" media_type="null" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/108953495_1791860724855572_r.jpg" width="100%" /><img alt="" media_type="null" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/108953495_1791860766266959_r.jpg" width="100%" /><img alt="" media_type="null" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/108953495_1791860845888986_r.jpg" width="100%" />
<div>Every contribution, no matter the size, helps us work toward these goals. We'll share updates as we reach milestones and make progress.

<div>Can't donate right now? Sharing this fundraiser with friends, family, and anyone who loves blacksmithing, traditional crafts, or local history is a big help, too.
