Spring Freecycles

Smith Campus Center

Our Freecycles have been so popular that we are hosting three this semester! The first one is in just under three weeks: January 28th. Bring any unwanted holiday gifts, and find something to re-gift to yourself! The Spring Freecycle dates are January 28th, March 11th, May 13th. We’ll be in the Harvard Commons in the Smith Campus Center, from 11am to 2pm on each date. If you haven’t been to a Freecycle before: bring your reusable goods you no longer need, and browse goods that others have brought. Check this page to keep track of Freecycle dates and to see others around campus, like HGSE's in a couple weeks!
