Does the institution have a program to reduce residence hall move-out waste?:
A brief description of the program:
Since its inception in 2008, PennMOVES – Move Out Volunteers Engaging in Service – has collected close to 500,000 pounds of items that students can’t take with them when they leave campus in the summer – clothes, furniture, kitchen gear, non perishable food items, etc. Rather than ending up in the landfill, these items are now distributed to individuals and organizations throughout our local community.
