[Solo New York](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solo-stoves) is a brand that is taking advantage of the buzz around the holiday season to generate some [charitable donations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-tote-of-hope). The company has partnered with Give Back Box for a promotional campaign that prompts consumers to bring in their [unwanted and previously used bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/second-beis) for exchange of a $15 voucher, which can be used on Solo New York products. The bags can be of any style and of any brand.

Consumers simply have to locate their unwanted and gently used bags and ship them in a cardboard box. A free shipping label is available through the Solo New York's website. These items will be directly delivered to not-for-profits around the United States and given to people in need.
