Donate to the Community Closet
As part of her Capstone project on sustainability in fashion, senior Sloane Turner is organizing a clothing drive to collect girls' gently used, dress-code-appropriate clothing and shoes. The plan is to collect clothing throughout June and July in preparation for a Community Closet before school starts in August.
Sloane's goal is to promote fashion recycling while helping to offset the cost of new school clothes for Upper School students--especially rising ninth graders, who no longer wear school uniforms and may need to augment their wardrobe.
While the community closet will only be collecting girls' clothing this summer, Sloane is hopeful that if the project is successful it may expand in future years to help as many students as possible.
If you have clothing you would like to donate, a blue drop-off bin is located in the Chambers Center reception area. Stay tuned for dates and times for the Community Closet, coming in August! Questions? Email Sloane at sturner26@athensacademy.org.
