VIDEO:  UConn Students Look to Donate Not Dump
 
 
Members of the University of Connecticut's Green Grads environmental club took to the dumpsters to find useable items thrown out on student move-out day. They plan to donate their finds to Windham Interfaith Area Ministries, where they will be divided up among charities, instead of rotting in a landfill.
