Domtar Supports Students and Teachers with School Supply Donations

With the increasing cost of school supplies, the start of a new school year can be a stressful — and expensive — time for families and teachers alike. With rising prices affecting every household, school supply donations can help bridge the gap and ensure that every student and teacher has what they need for academic success.

The average U.S. household will spend around $875 on school supplies during the 2024 back-to-school season, and more than 90 percent of teachers spend their own income on supplies for their classrooms.

This year, to assist students and educators in their communities, employees at Domtar’s North American locations engaged in local school supply drives and fundraising events. We also continued our partnerships with customers like ODP Corporation and organizations like Classroom Central to give back to our communities.

Monadnock Paper Mills Redefines Sustainable Giving with 100% Post – Consumer Waste Gift Card Solution

In today’s retail landscape, gift cards are a popular staple of modern shopping experiences for busy consumers. However, this convenience comes at a considerable environmental cost. According to the International Card Manufacturers Association (ICMA), nearly 30 billion plastic cards are produced globally each year. More than 70% of gift cards are used and discarded within just six months – quickly becoming part of the estimated 53 million tons of plastic waste that either accumulates in landfills, undergoes incineration, or requires energy-intensive recycling processes. Given that the total capacity of the U.S.’s ten chemical-recycling plants is only 456,000 tons per year, it’s evident there is a drastic shortfall in handling this waste sustainably. These facts point to the need for a more sustainable gift card solution – Monadnock Paper Mills has the answer. Leveraging this deep expertise, Monadnock presents its innovative response to the environmental challenges posed by traditional plastic gift cards: Envi PC 100 Card.
