Fixit UP, Thursday, March 21

March 15, 2019

Next Thursday, March 21, 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. (please note: this is a new time from previous upbeat notices), the College Ecology Club is hosting Fixit UP  in the Pilot Space (Shiley 110). All are welcome to stop by and bring in broken clothes, jewelry, small appliances, bikes, and electronics to have them fixed for free by skilled volunteers.

The Ecology Club invites all to participate and sign up to volunteer at the event. As a participant, you can help reduce waste in our community by bringing in broken items and having them repaired instead of throwing them away. As a volunteer, you can help sign in and direct participants, repair jewelry, sharpen knives, and fix clothing, electronics, bikes or small appliances. If you’d like to volunteer, please sign up! Volunteer Form HERE.

Please forward this information to others who might like to know about the event. The College Ecology Club humbly asks that you mention the event in class, send an email to students, announce the event on Moodle class discussion boards, etc. 

For more information contact Ruby Beauchamp, CEC president, at beauchar20@up.edu.
