I think any charity shop could use them instead of the plastic bag.
Or they could sell them as produce bags.

Hi Melanie

I’m a leader with Rainbow and Brownie groups in Wellington Shropshire we could definitely make us of these sort of promotional rucksacks.

either as craft projects or to distinguish our girls from the 1000′s of others at large scale guiding events.

please notify me at richard_morgan1@sky.com if you still have bags that need a grateful home

kind regards

You can make them into new interesting bags. Do a search for sewing or craft websites as I found a number of patterns when I was looking for solutions about six months ago. It normally involves cutting and ironing pieces together before sewing into new patterns. Some of them are amazing and real works of art.

They make great organizing tools for a group, team or class.
- Places that sponsor sports teams- YMCA, YWCA, Boys and Girls Clubs- can likely make great use of these.

- A library might offer them as bags for library materials.

- Also, summer camps could likely make great use of them.

- Scout and 4-H programs may also find them of use.

- A Goodwill or thrift store could take them, too.

I would see if you can’t donate them to schools or daycares.
My son’s daycare received a bunch of those reusable grocery bags and we use them to tranport blankets and clothes between home and daycare.

I think they would also make great bags to keep handy at the pool or beach for wet items.
