Don’t throw out those stinky old sneakers...


You might think nobody would EVER want your stinky old sneakers – but they do... 

 Nike’s Reuse-a-Shoe program will take any brand in any condition. They recycle them into courts for sports and playground equipment around the world. To donate them – just drop them off at a participating store. Here are some more old things to put to good use:

Broken crayons: The Crayon Recycle Program at Crazy Crayons employs people with developmental disabilities to turn old crayons into new ones. Just toss them in a bag and drop them off. Check CrazyCrayons.com to find a location.

Old Bicycles: BicyclesForHumanity.org will be happy to put that old bike to good use for someone who needs one – or to teach repair skills. You can also check BikesForTheWorld.org and Pedals for Progress at P4P.org.
