The Institute of Design & Technology of South Dakota wants to help you get rid of them and put them to good use!

"Before you “Fall back” and let the piles accumulate in your closets, basement or garage -- please let us help you to recycle.

The past summer, area students expanded their awareness of eco-friendly design with our “Project Green” boot camps. With overwhelming interest, the Institute of Design & Technology is continuing awareness at area schools and green weekend workshop sessions. Through “Project Green Design”, students are learning about ways to re-use, recycle and/or use sustainable products that will help our environment rather than spending decades the landfills.

If you have the following items or could save these items that would normally end-up in your garage or Goodwill; please save then for our programs. We will gladly pick them up even if you have just a few or save them in an old grocery bag marked “IDTSD”.

We are looking for the following items:

* Blue jeans (any size with back pockets, cut-offs, long, short, etc)

* 100% button long sleeve shirts ( men’s, women’s, teens)

* Neck ties (all colors, widths)

* Old belts

* Plastic jugs – ½ & 1 gal. (empty clean milk, distilled water, vinegar, etc)

* Tabs (from aluminum can – tab only)

* Metal bottle caps (soda pop only – caps only)

* Tough plastic packs (colorful – empty dried fruit, craziness, apricot packages)

* Mini juice pouches (single serving- no straw)

* Old burlap, muslin or cotton flour or rice sacks (with copy/images on it)

* Any magazine with fashion images

* Call us, if you have any other interesting item that comes to mind

Thank you for your support,

Anita Kealey, Executive Director"
