Connecticut School Box Programs

Bay State Textiles School Box Programs

The focus of the School Box Program is to spread awareness to the problem of unwanted textiles, educate on acceptable items for textile recycling/reuse, while generating much-needed revenue for the school communities.  A cross branded donation box is placed outside of each school in a district, the box is serviced weekly and a rebate check is disbursed monthly, based on the weight of donations.  There is no cost to the program and Bay State Textiles handles all of the logistics to the program.

The  Bay State Textiles Program brings the REAL world to your classroom:

  • Economics
  • Environmental
  • Community Service
  • Peer to Peer Education
