During
the University of Virginia Division of
Recoverable and Disposable Resources’ annual “Chuck
It for Charity” recycling drive,
one person’s trash becomes another
person’s treasure. Clothes, lamps,
fans, small furniture, rugs and other
items that are discarded when students
exit their dormitories are collected
in 23 areas around Grounds, usually lounges
in dorms. Local charities, such
as Goodwill Industries, Albemarle Baptist
Associates and The Furniture Ministry,
then collect the items to distribute
to people in need within the community.
Collection, which
began at the start of exams, winds
up this Saturday. Full
story.
