BAYLOR UNIVERSITY, Texas (KXXV) — Students are leaving residence halls at Baylor University as the spring semester ends, and a new initiative is hoping to give unwanted items a purpose.
Baylor University
The “Bear-ly Used" initiative encourages students to donate useful items instead of throwing them away. These items could include clothing, appliances, furniture, and other items often left behind or thrown away during move-out.
“Bear-ly Used” is partnering with three nonprofits for donations this semester:
- Lovely Village, a nonprofit for survivors of sexual assault;
- ReStore, Waco Habitat for Humanity; and
- Green City Recyclers, a Houston-based textile recycling group.
Volunteers are needed to help the initiative from Friday, May 9, through Sunday, May 18, and can sign up here.
