The second annual ReuseFest, presented by the PA Resources Council with support from the American Eagle Outfitters Foundation, will take place on August 3 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., at the Goodwill Workforce Development Center (Lawrenceville), 118 52nd Street, Pittsburgh PA 15201.

ReuseFest is a one-day collection event for materials destined for reuse.  This year's event includes local nonprofit organizations Global Links, Construction Junction, Off the Floor, Pittsburgh Center for Creative Reuse, Goodwill, FreeRide and the Animal Rescue League Shelter & Wildlife Center. 

All of these great non-profits will be collecting materials for FREE for reuse such as: bikes, medical supplies (crutches, canes, wheelchairs), usable building materials, gently used furniture and mattresses, clothing and household goods, art and craft supplies, pet carriers, food and toys  and much more. 

All materials donated will be reused in some fashion, whether resold, repurposed or given to those in need in our region and around the world.

For more information, visit the PRC ReuseFest webpage or call 412.488.7490 ext. 236 for a longer list of items that will be collected as well as more information on all of the participating partner organizations.
