Finding Treasure 2023

Finding Treasure 2023

Finding Treasure is an annual initiative by the Thames Sustainability Club, dedicated to collecting preloved and unused items from students and giving them a second life. The program emphasizes the importance of extending the lifespan of everyday items as a crucial step toward addressing the growing waste crisis.

By creating a platform to trade personal belongings, Finding Treasure keeps usable goods out of landfills and recirculates them back. This thoughtful approach not only reduces waste but also promotes a culture of sustainability and responsible consumption within Thames.

Why?

  • Promotes a sustainable lifestyle,
  • Raises awareness about overproduction and overconsumption,
  • Encourages active participation of all Thames College students in community service initiatives,
  • Advocates for moving away from fast fashion.
