Call to Action
Donate to the Libary of Things!
The ReUse Depot has started to collect high-quality items for its future Library of Things and would love your help bringing it to life. Browse the wishlist and see if you have an item to donate (new or gently used) so together we can build a community powered by sharing, reuse, and less waste. Email us to coordinate pick-up.
Gather Flashdrive Items
This month’s collection day is on a Sunday, July 19, starting at 8am. Please email biflashdrive@gmail.com if you have any of these items to donate:
- Art supplies for all ages in usable and good condition – drawing & painting supplies only
- Games for ages 13 (+)
> Games must be complete sets – no missing pieces.
> Secure the lid so that pieces do not fall out.
> Games for young children – e.g., Candyland, Chutes & Ladders – are NOT needed.
