Successful, Recycled Clothing Sale


Working together with my teammates to complete our clothing sale was a big accomplishment. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw how many people came in and actually bought something from the sale . I thought the clothing sale was a good idea but I thought nobody was going to come.

I am surprised on how much our sale was a success!

Don't You Love Teamwork? I Do!!!!


Hey I am going to talk about teamwork! Teamwork is like when u are helpful to your friends. Sometimes if we help each other carry the recycled cans, we get rewards.The best part is when we get to work together to get things done. When we bring in recyclables we always have each other. I don't think we ever had one person rinse their bottles by themselves and that's the point of teamwork. You're never alone I promise!!!

Going Green With Clothes, Another Way to Recycle


Residents and other doners donated clothing to the Gateway Center in order to raise funds for youth programming. This was a way of reusing peoples clothes.
The items donated were purses, shoes, shirts and pants. With the pieces donated, customers were able to purchase a complete wardrobe for under $5!
The sale was a success and we accomplished two goals, raising funds for a good cause and re-using instead of throwing away.
