Are you feeling the holiday spirit? Do you have gently used items taking up space? Bring everything over to the Greencycle Holiday Swap at the Leonard Public Library on Saturday, December 2nd.

Bring some! Or take some!

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.

Let’s recycle, reuse and reduce.

MEN’S, WOMEN’S & CHILDREN’S CLOTHING, SHOES, BOOKS, TOYS, BICYCLES, PHONES, HOUSEHOLD ITEMS & ELECTRONICS. We will accept electronics until 2 PM. Cleaned, gently used and working items please. No need to bring anything to take items. Out of consideration for others, we may limit folks to the 1 bag or the number of bags that you’ve brought to donate to the swap. We do not allow taking donated items to resell. Why? Because all remaining items are donated to local homeless shelters for neighbors truly in need.

We’re delighted to partner with Home Life Services which runs five shelters in Brooklyn and Bronx, including one in Greenpoint. Toys, books and children’s clothing will be earmarked for their Albemarle Family Residence in East Flatbush; this shelter houses 180 children, ages 5 through 18! Please help these children and families while benefiting our environment.

Suggested donation: $10 a family to help cover costs and support local Boy Scouts Pack 7 and Troop 26. Town Square is a qualified 501(c)(3) not‐for‐profit institution. Your donation will be TAX DEDUCTIBLE to the full extent of the law. For more info, please contact Town Square at 347.559.1410 or greencycle@townsquareinc.com. We gratefully thank our partners and sponsors: CM Stephen Levin, CM Antonio Reynoso, NYC DYCD, truly awesome Brooklyn Boy Scouts Troop 26, Friends of Leonard Library, Leonard Library and Home Life Services.

And please stay in touch!
