Students of a Greener World (SGW) will participate in NewtonSERVES 2018 by collecting used sneakers for their Sneaker Reuse & Recycling Project on Sunday, April 29 from 9am-3pm at Newton City Hall. Save your sneakers from the trash and instead bring them to City Hall on April 29 where they will be reused or recycled. Kids and adult sizes welcome — we have collected over 300 pairs in the 2015-2017 NewtonSERVES events, donating them to organizations that distribute them accordingly. Please contact [email protected] if you have any questions.
