Girls Go Green

One way to recycle is to reuse. Think of places and ways to use Girl Scout Cookie cases after the sale. What are some places you've seen boxes this size used? What else could these boxes be used for if they were decorated another way? Cookie Cases can be used as:

Boxes for personal belongings at home, a daycare center, a school, a senior center

Lost and found boxes at home, schools, stores, small businesses, a senior center

Sorting bins for laundry, at home, schools or senior centers

Recycle boxes for paper at home, schools or businesses

Hobby boxes

Decoration or other storage boxes

After you have thought of some ways to recycle the cases, choose a recycle-reuse project. Find out if the user wants the cases as is, or if they would like you and your troop/group to decorate the cases in a certain way with any special messages. Have fun turning your cookie cases into new recycle-reuse cases for other uses.
