Evolutionary Studies at Binghamton University

05/14/2026

As Binghamton University students pack up their belongings at the end of the semester, many find themselves with items they no longer need or just can’t transport back home. Instead of throwing them away, the Move Out Project gives those items a second life. https://bit.ly/4dhwjVN
