Buffalo Exchange Tokens for Bags Program

We are delighted to announce that we’ve joined Buffalo Exchange’s Tokens for Bags program! 

Shoppers are offered a token in place of a bag, which they can donate to one of three local charities. For each token, Buffalo Exchange donates five cents to that charity. Since its creation in 1994, Buffalo Exchange has raised over $1,004,000 for thousands of local nonprofit organizations. Every token a customer donates represents a plastic bag that is not added into circulation. Together the program has kept over 20.07 million plastic bags from polluting the environment.

When you shop at Buffalo Exchange Downtown, toss your token in the Animal Welfare slot to benefit the underdogs of Happy Tails Happy Homes!
