| Take Advantage of the W&L Exchange |
|
| Reorganizing or decluttering your office? Don't throw those office supplies away – donate them to the Exchange! The Exchange is W&L's very own on-campus resource for re-use. Donate your gently used office/school supplies, accessories and small furnishings, and instead of going to the landfill they will go to someone on campus who wants them. Donations can be dropped off at the Exchange in Early Fielding 121. Smaller items can be sent though campus mail. Email us at OSEE@wlu.edu if you need assistance with dropping off a donation. Since the Office of Sustainability opened the Exchange last winter, happy customers have been finding just what they need – from binders, desk organizers and file folders to dorm décor and kitchenware – for free! Your donation helps us keep the inventory fresh and material waste numbers low. Visit the exchange webpage on the Sustainability website. |
