Supporting SLU’s Green Initiative
• "...Designed to eliminate the excessive amount of
reusable items St. Lawrence currently places in landfills
at the end of each academic year. It is designed to
contribute to both the St. Lawrence campus and Canton
Community. Our hope is to form a collaborative effort to
place reusable items where there is need in the local
