Together, we

can make a

difference one

shirt at a time!

America is experiencing an environmental awakening; our lifestyle needs to become

more sustainable.

The Box That Benefits Many What does it mean to have a donation box at your school?

It provides a simple way to help the environment. Only 15% of all discarded textiles in the US are

currently being recycled. Please help us change that.

It gives a convenient way for parents to donate unwanted clothing while dropping off or picking

up their kids.

It helps to build and maintain sustainability habits in children, reuse and recycling becomes the

natural thing to do.

It gives an opportunity to learn more about people in other parts of the world that will eventually

wear some of the items dropped into the box.

Our donation boxes offer a solution to

the problem of what to do with clothes

that are worn but not worn out. When

parents come to drop off the kids at

school, they can find a conveniently

located Campus California box on their

way, available 24/7 . They also know

that their donation has environmental

benefits and will be used to help those

less fortunate than themselves.

Campus California is dedicated to empowering the poor and

marginalized peoples of developing countries. We use the funds

generated from selling the collected clothing to support training

and placement of volunteers in development projects in

Southern Africa and Central America. This program is a life-

changing experience for the ones participating as volunteers, as

well as for the people directly benefitting from the work of the

development projects overseas.

Serving Our Local and Global Community

Campus California is providing donations of children’s books for school libraries.

Please contact us if you are interested; regardless of your ability to host a clothing

donation box.

We can help your

school too!

Besides other items, we receive a number of

different kinds of books as donations. A

portion of these books are children’s books

and we try to donate most of these to local

school libraries. If you are interested in

receiving books for your school, please

contact us.

Hosting a Donation box at your school is not

a condition for receiving these books.

"The Clothing Box is a part of the community

that gives neighbors the opportunity to give

back... We are glad to be a part of helping the

community thrive. "

Our Signature Green Boxes have become a hallmark for clothes recycling throughout the San Francisco Bay

Area (and beyond), attracting and encouraging people to donate and recycle clothes at many convenient

locations. Since 2003, we have been operating this community service program free of charge to

participating companies, organizations, cities, colleges, schools and other entities. With more than 800

boxes in schools, parking lots and along storefronts across all the counties of the Greater Bay Area, we

collected and recycled over 6 million pounds of clothing and shoes in 2009 alone.

Thank you very much!

Our steel collection boxes are custom made and are designed

for safe and easy use. They feature a large one-way security

chute at the front, similar to the one used in a mailbox. Bags of

clothing or loose items go into the chute but it is nearly

impossible for others to reach in and remove them. We know

that having a secure collection box is a key functional quality.

Simple donation instructions are painted onto the front plate

of the security chute. A pick-up is scheduled every time the box

is expected to be filled at 2/3 of its capacity, ensuring the

public is always able to deposit donations into the box.

The boxes have a 4x4 feet footprint and stand 6’6” tall, roughly

the size of a vending machine. Campus California carries a

liability insurance. Our agent will issue a liability insurance

certificate should you request it.

We will deliver a freshly painted and clearly marked collection box to your premises and assign a collection

driver for regular service. The pick-ups will begin the same week. Our drivers are diligent and are given a

strong incentive to pick up every piece from the collection box. If there is ever any overflow, please give us a

call and we will respond, usually within a few hours. It is our promise to keep you satisfied with our service. If

for any reason you choose to have the bin removed, we will do so within 7 to 10 business days.
