Why a Swap Shop?

Every year, millions of perfectly good items are sent to landfills, resulting in billions of pounds of waste. Let’s start thinking about how we shop, embracing the idea of reuse and supporting businesses with a strong sustainability commitment. What better place to start than a free DC Swap Shop?
