"Adopt a pen" by Save That Pen @ NUS

To: NUS Faculty, Staff Members and Students

Dear NUS Friends,

The Save That Pen @ NUS team is glad to present "Adopt a Pen"! Over the course of last semester, we collected close to 4000 pens from the NUS community and we're looking forward to many more in this new academic year. With such fantastic response, we hope that you will continue to show us support by contributing used pens to our pen deposit bins available on campus and participating in our upcoming events.

Do your bit to save the environment we have just by giving your used pens a second life.

For more information about "Adopt a Pen", please refer to the poster attached =)



About Save That Pen @ NUS

Save That Pen is a project initiated by 3 NUS students who wish to do something about the pervasive pen wastage culture observed in Singapore's society. The project aims to reduce pen‐waste by collecting and refilling used pens. These would then be passed on to people who need them more than us. In creating this avenue for people to donate their pens, we hope to translate the message of sustainability to both the NUS community and the recipients of the pens.

Thank you!

The Save That Pen @ NUS Team
