Yo

For the next couple of weeks we will will be hosting a clothing drive at the church in which we will donate to Planet Aid.  Planet Aid help with a variety of programs for disadvantaged people around the world. Planet Aid accepts gently used, unsoiled, and functional clothing and shoes donations. Please wash and fold the clothes before you donate it. Attached is the S.P.Y.C clothing drive flyer.

In addition, tomorrow MGSOSA is hosting youth retreat at St. George's Syrian Orthodox Church. The second flyer has all of the details.

Below is some information regarding Planet Aid if you're interested.

"Planet Aid is nonprofit organization that collects donated clothing and shoes to protect the environment and support sustainable development in impoverished communities around the world. Planet Aid protects the environment and preserves our natural habitat by reducing the volume of textiles entering the solid waste stream, thereby saving on landfill space and reducing the emission of greenhouse gases. Since 1997, Planet Aid has collected more 160 million pounds of clothes and shoes and has donated more than $70 million to international aid and development projects around the world."
