Yes
None
A brief description of the program:
Donation Dash occurs during the week-long move-out of students from the Residence Halls each May. Housing & Dining, WRRAP, and Plant Operations coordinate a collection for reusable items to donate to local charities and thrift stores or to the campus Reusable Office Supply and Exchange (R.O.S.E.). Donation Dash coordinators set up three stations on campus, to which residents bring all material they will not be taking with them when they move out. Volunteers at the stations help sort residents’ items into re-use, recycle, compost, trash and food donation bins. Furthermore, additional recycling and donation containers are placed in the residence halls prior to and during Move-out week. Annually this event keeps over 25,000 pounds of materials out of the landfill.
