Welcome to PUPCYCLE!
I am soooooo excited to launch this program!
The name Pupcycle is a combination of 2 things that are important to me. First – PUPPIES! Animals in general, but for the purpose of explaining the name, let’s focus on.... PUPPIES! Secondly, upcycling. Upcycling is a form of recycling where an item is given a new use rather than being discarded.
Pupcycle is a program in which we collect new or barely used tennis balls from participating tennis clubs, country clubs, vendors, etc and we resell them at a reduced price. Money collected from the sales of the balls are then used for fundraising - including for a new rescue! More about my rescue plans later. Additionally, soon, we will be adding bones to our list of available items. In summary, we are using upcycled tennis balls and bones to also upcycle the lives of as many animals as we can help. So, I believe the name is perfect!
The facilities we collect the balls from are very particular about the quality as well as using them for a very limited time. Therefore, they are essentially like new or new when we get them, and they tend to last longer than most that are typically purchased for pets. Initial feedback via our soft launches have been 100% positive!
Your purchase not only helps reduce waste, but it is also a way to help many precious pups (in the future other animals as well) live better lives!
I will be building our website soon but, in the meantime, our page and Instagram accounts are - https://www.facebook.com/PupcycleProgram and respectively. Please take a moment and follow both. Bear with me as I may be slow in posting content for now, but I will definitely be using these platforms to keep everyone updated.
Thank you so much to all who have taken an interest in PUPCYCLE!
