How big of an impact does ‘Pack Up. Pitch In.’ have each year?
So much impact! The MSU Surplus Store and Recycling Center, in collaboration with Student Life and Engagement, collected over 500,000 pounds of materials during the spring 2023 move-out, with about 31% being diverted from the landfill as part of the long-running "Pack Up. Pitch-In." program. SLE also collected nearly 12,000 pounds of nonperishable food during spring 2023 move-out, which was donated to the MSU Student Food Bank, MSU Safe Place and other local organizations.
