Share Your Spare Gift Wrap
Instead of buying new wrapping materials for the holidays, join the Office of Sustainability and the Sustainability Ambassadors in their Second Annual Gift Wrap Swap!
Bring unused or gently used gift wrap, gift bags, tissue paper, ribbons, bows, or cards to the Office of Sustainability, 123 Bray Hall, for the December swap. If you don’t have these items and are in need, be sure to come to the swap and see what you can use.
Did you know? Yearly, approximately 8,000 tons of wrapping paper (the equivalent of about 50,000 trees) is used to wrap gifts. Even worse, most commercial wrapping paper, gift bags, and cards are not recyclable because they are often coated in plastic or glitter.
