Used Item Collection in May

As the saying goes, sustainability not only addresses the impact on the environment but also our community. Joined by the Community Recycling Coop, a charitable organization established in Shamshuipo by the Industrial Relation Institute, PolyU Staff Association organized the used item collection campaign on 7 and 8 May 2019. A dedicated counter was set up to collect reusable items like books, household goods, stationery, toys, clothing, shoes, bags and electrical appliances. Over 2,300 Kg of items were collected from the University community. These items were handled by Community Recycling Coop to help the needy. The event was more than an occasion to promote reusing. It was also an opportunity to spread the message on sharing and caring for the community.
