Back to School Bin Drive with SPUD Vancouver

August 27, 2018

Summer’s coming to a close and you know what that means… time to think about heading back to school. Don’t worry though – it’s not all bad! This year we’re kicking off the back-to-school season with a bin drive in partnership with SPUD Vancouver. Time to clean out the drawers and support some local kids, too.

 

What’s a bin drive?

 

A few times per year, SPUD partners up with an organization in each of their four locations. As they drop off and pick up deliveries, they collect items from their customers in their SPUD bins that the organizations might need. This August, SPUD be collecting new school supplies.
