How it works?

Benjamin Franklin Charter School-Gilbert Campus will be paid for each pound of textiles that are collected. The more, the merrier! Your donation may be tax deductible. Please contact Benjamin Franklin Charter School-Gilbert Campus for more details on this.

You're saving the environment while also raising money!

How are the items recycled?

The textiles collected are sorted into different categories:
- useable secondhand clothing which is resold both domestically and in developing nations.
- wiping rags for commercial and industrial purposes.
- textiles that will be recycled into fibers to make everyday products such as insulation, carpet padding, upholstery, etc.

Please start collecting your old clothes and textiles now - ask friends and family too. All Proceeds go towards our Save for Shade campaign!
