S.F. public school teachers get a whopping 50 cents per student per year for art supplies, a fact that has motivated Crème Brûlée Cart to pitch in with a fundraiser on Sunday, October 18 from 2-4 p.m. at Fabric8 (3318 22nd St. at Valencia).

There, you'll be able to buy a brûlée ($4) or receive one for free in exchange for bringing usable art supplies. All proceeds and donations will be given to the San Francisco Unified School District's STAR Schools Art and Music Planning Program.

Items such as Sharpies, scissors, yarn, and paint brushes are desired. Take a look at the list of the most-needed supplies after the jump.
