The 2 to 8 September campaign will accept new or used bags, pencil cases and stationery at four locations.

 

Residents are invited to donate new or used school supplies in excellent condition at four locations across the capital from 2 to 8 September.

Now in its third year, Nicosia Municipality’s “Recycle and Share” campaign aims to support children and families ahead of the new school year.

What can be donated

Accepted items include school bags, pencil cases and stationery. All used items must be in excellent condition.

Under the slogan, “I take what I need, I give what I can,” residents may both donate school supplies and collect items they need.

The campaign will run from Wednesday, 2 September, until Tuesday, 8 September 2026, excluding the weekend of 5 and 6 September. Collection points will operate from 8.30am to 2.30pm.
