40 Days, 40 Colleges To Celebrate 40 Years of Earth Day
Wearable Collections is celebrating the 40th anniversary of Earth Day with an exciting recycling
challenge. Our goal is to conduct clothing drives on 40 college campuses over the course of 40 days.
The Challenge
We are looking for motivated students to organize a clothing collection on campus. Whether you represent an
environmental club, sports club or fraternity/sorority, this is an opportunity to be a leader on campus. Wearable Collections will provide you with all the instructions you need to ensure a successful clothing drive. The only requirement is the enthusiasm to make a difference on campus.
The Reward
When less clothing ends up in landfills we are all winners. However, on top of feeling good for taking a proactive stance on the environment, Wearable Collections will dedicate 25% of the gross proceeds from the collections to either your organization or the organization of your choice. It is possible to raise as much as $1000 for your organization.
Rules
We at Wearable Collections aren’t exactly stickler for rules, but we do request that you contact
us by March 30th, 2010. The duration of the collections is up to the respective organizations,
but we feel to maximize promotion and collections, the drive should be at least 1 week.
Depending on the region where you are hosting the drive, there will be a deadline set for the day of collections as follows:
Washington DC
(and 60 mile vicinity) -
The pick-up date will be Friday April 16th
Philadelphia
(and 60 mile vicinity) -
The pick-up date will be Earth Day, Thursday April 22nd
New York City
