415,000 is a big number!

FUN FACTS TO KNOW AND TELL

Northfield volunteers have sewn @4,000 Boomerang Bags made from donated fabric.
Translated into numbers is looks like this:

If each bag is used to haul books or groceries 1 time a week (and most of the bags can hold a lot of stuff) thus using 2 fewer single use plastic bags that equals 8,000 less bags used each week.
52 weeks in a year 415,000 less bags in a year.   And that’s just using it once a week- how many times a week do you use a Boomerang Bag?
Plus we have taken many, many pounds of unused fabric out of the garbage stream too!
