About Us
Mission Statement
Street Flags USA is dedicated to helping those experiencing homelessness by linking them to employment in a woodworking shop making rustic US flags and assisting their transition from the streets to a home with dignity and love as an expression of the continuing ministry of Jesus Christ.
Our founder, Scott Labuda
Originally from Cleveland, OH, Scott Labuda moved to New York City in 1987 to work with homeless youth. There he found his passion for working with those living on the streets.
Scott has worked in the social work field in NYC, Chicago, Houston, and Cleveland. He is currently an outreach worker providing services to adult individuals experiencing homelessness on the streets of Tampa/St Petersurg.
Scott is a member of Mensa International and the Screen Actors Guild, and has written a children's book on race entitled The Color of People.
Scott lives with his wife, Bonnie, and dog, Cleo, in Palm Harbor, FL. He is an avid outdoorsman who enjoys rowing, snow skiing, bicycling, hiking, and working out.
