by Sarah Salvadore, January 9, 2025

EAST BRUNSWICK, NJ — "The East Brunswick Public #Library and the East Brunswick #Sustainability Task Force are organizing their first-ever Repair Café.

"This community-based initiative will help residents keep still usable items out of landfills by promoting repairs instead of throwing them out.

"Any item in need of repairs can be brought in to be fixed on the spot. Volunteer repairers will be on hand to help.

"Residents can bring clothing/textiles (shirts, pants, sweaters, knitted blankets, etc.) and jewelry (bracelets, necklaces, earrings, etc.).

"Examples of repairs can be an afghan with moth holes, pants with a tear in the knee, broken links on necklaces and bracelets that are coming undone.

"The Repair Café will be held at the library, 2 Jean Walling Civic Center Drive, on Sunday, Jan. 26 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m."
