Reducing Waste in a Circular Economy Through Reusable Products

Sometimes, the best thing to do is start something bananas with other crazy people who believe it can work. Crystal Dreisbach is the founder and executive director of Don’t Waste Durham and Green To Go, a nonprofit and subsidiary organization focusing on reusable products and the circular economy. By structuring her startup under a nonprofit umbrella, she’s been able to take more risks up front and explore an abundance of funding opportunities that wouldn’t be as readily available to a for-profit company. With partnership opportunities, an incredible board of directors, and a unique value proposition for restaurants, Crystal has helped create a pathway to make systemic change in reuse culture by making the first step in this behavioral change accessible.
