Editor's Notes
- If you had the opportunity to do something good to help animals, children, teachers or other individuals would you take it?
- By donating items that you don't want you can help!
- Donating items is a threefold gift.
- 1st Gift--Environmental Impact Reduce, reuse, and recycle is listed in the order of least environmental impact. Why reuse before recycle? It takes more resources to recycle an item than it does to reuse it. By donating items you are joining the cycle and giving your donation a new life through reuse.
- 2nd Gift--Money for the Organization of Your Choice Whatever organization you chose to donate your items to will see either reduced operating costs (use your item in the course of their business) or new income through the item's sale (think thrift stores).
- 3rd Gift--Benefits a Person or Animal If the organization you gave your donation to saves money, then it has more money to spend in helping others. Or if your item has been sold, then whoever bought it is now happy because they have just what they wanted!
- Let's say you have an old lap blanket that you no longer need. You could give it to many organizations (thrift stores, homeless shelters, etc.), but you decide to give it directly to the animal shelter. The animal shelter reuses the blanket spreading it out for Choco the lab to lay on in his kennel until he gets adopted. Choco is happy that he has a nice blanket to lay on and the animal shelter saved money, since they did not have to go and buy a blanket. The extra savings helps them assist even more animals...and all because you chose to donate. You are now a Reuse Hero.
- An unwanted item can go to the landfill. :-( Or you can do something good and become a hero. By donating your item you give a threefold gift to the environment, charity of your choice, and to an individual. Please become a reuse hero!! :-) Spread the word! Share this presentation.
