Approximately 95% of all used clothing, footwear, and other household fabric products, such as sheets and towels, can be reused or recycled, yet only 15% of reusable textiles are recycled. Of all recyclable materials, textile reuse and recycling has the second-highest potential for reducing greenhouse gases. Donate or recycle clothes to support vulnerable populations and protect the planet at the same time. You’ll earn verified volunteer credits and will be entered for the opportunity to win a $1,000 scholarship, not to mention inspire others with your efforts.
This campaign is part of DoSomething’s Strength Through Service program, where you can strengthen your community, be considered for a scholarship and earn verified volunteer hours. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. spoke of creating a Beloved Community--one that requires acts of service based on justice and equal opportunities. Let's work together to bring Dr. King's vision to life.
