Clothes for a Change by Marina Colicci
My Project is called Clothes for a Change. I am having an event at the store that I am currently employed, called Once Upon a Child. Once Upon a Child is a children's retail/resale store that buys and sells new and gently used children's items. My event will be held on Saturday, May 3rd from 10-6 p.m. For the Clothes for a change Event all donations will be going to the Children's Home of Poughkeepsie. The Children's home of Poughkeepsie provides a safe and stable environment for children and families who are abused or neglected. Children in this home are placed here by Social Services for foster care. For my project, you can receive a 2 dollar baby buck coupon that can apply toward your next purchase. You can receive one of these coupons by purchasing one or more pieces of apparel and/or a toy and donating it to my booth located outside of the store. Monetary, Clothing, and Toy donations are accepted. I just finished making flyers for my project today, I am hoping I get a big turnout! The anticipation for this weekend is killing me I just hope it all comes together.
I think you did a nice job on your project so far, I like the idea of the coupon keep up the good work!

ReplyDeleteMarina,
ReplyDeleteGreat job with your project! I am so proud of your accomplishments. Let's work on the press release together- I think we can create a great one. Also, see if you have any light up toys that maybe you can share in our class. Way to go!
