According to Bay State Textiles, almost 21 billion pounds of textiles are thrown away every year in the United States; however, 95% of the textiles discarded can be recycled, and 45% of recycled textiles can be reused.

This year, committing to reducing your carbon footprint and helping those in need from campus just got even simpler. Donate your old clothes, shoes, sheets, towels, backpacks, and other approved items to the textile recycling stations around campus.

Look out for the sweater icon   on our Eco Map to find the closest textile recycling station near you!
