Description

EcoShip is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that collects gently used shipping materials from Chicagoland communities and distributes them to local businesses for reuse. We encourage local support amongst our neighborhoods. Some of the Earth's greatest landscapes are threatened by landfills filled with items that will take hundreds of years to decompose.
We aim to keep as many shipping materials out of landfills as we can, and that all starts with youth education. EcoShip has partnered with high school environmental clubs, girl scout troops, Patagonia, and SailGP for their Sail Inspire program to teach youth about recycling and reusing.


Our annual fundraiser will help raise the necessary funds to expand our project into more
Chicago neighborhoods. The fundraiser will take place on September 16th at Revolution
Brewing located at 3340 N Kedzie Ave, Chicago, IL 60618. We expect 75-100 individuals. All
our sponsors will be promoted on our website, event flyers, and social media. We will also
include all logos on a banner that will be visible throughout the event.


Thank you for your consideration.
