Day Middle School students are organizing a clothing drive to collect children’s clothing to give to Cradles to Crayons. The drive will run March 25 through April 5, with donation boxes at two drop-off locations:
- West Suburban YMCA lobby (276 Church Street)
- Temple Emanuel lobby (385 Ward Street)
What to donate? Gently used clothing for children sizes 0-20 and adult small/medium (in youth styles).
Why? To support more than 300,000 children in Massachusetts homeless or high-risk economic circumstances.
This spring service project is part of Project 351, an organization started by Governor Deval Patrick that gathers 8th graders from across Massachusetts to engage in service activities over the course of a year. The organizers at Day Middle School are Newton Ambassadors for Project 351.
