The Pop-Up Swap Shop runs every Monday and Friday in downstairs Moseley.
The Pop-Up Swap Shop is an on-campus clothing swap that offers a free and sustainable option for students to trade their own gently used clothes in exchange for other gently used items.
The shop runs twice a week, Mondays from 4 – 6 p.m. and Fridays 3:30 – 6 p.m. If students would like to get free clothing but do not have any clothing on hand to swap they may commit to a sustainable habit or donate any fabric scraps on hand.
Lauren Nesbit ‘27 is the current outreach intern for the Office of Sustainability, and part of her role is managing the Pop-Up Swap Shop.
“I really love working on it because I get to meet so many people on campus passionate about personal style and sustainable fashion,” said Nesbit.
Additionally, Nesbit emphasized the importance of student donations in helping maintain the Swap Shop’s inventory and ability to reach more members of the Elon community.
“The wider variety of donations we get, the wider variety of customers we can serve, so never be afraid to donate what you have/ Every donation helps someone else achieve their dream closet in a sustainable way,” she added.
