Give+Go
What you don't want, someone else might need. Give+Go is an annual program designed to gather gently used goods students leave behind at the end of the year and bring them to local and regional nonprofits, where they can be reused or resold. This program diverts tons of material from the landfill and gives 91°µÍø students an opportunity to give back to their community. Since the start of the program in 2007, more than 100 tons of material have been diverted from entering the landfill and are instead donated to local, regional and international agencies.
The video above features 91°µÍø volunteers collecting and sorting donations, and it includes footage from one of our partner organizations, Backstretch Employee Service Team here in Saratoga Springs.
