Have a pair of jeans you never wear or don’t fit anymore?
Student Council is sponsoring Teens for Jeans, a project to collect blue jeans to give to homeless.
“It’s an honorable thing for our school to be doing,” junior Mark Castilla said. “It shows that our school cares. I think we will get at least 100 [pairs of] jeans, at least. I feel inspired to want to donate my own jeans.”
StuCo will accept donations of gently used or new jeans through Feb. 12. Jeans should be dropped off in the front office. The leadership group is hoping to have a strong donation turnout.
“I hope it will be a positive experience,” senior Josh Companion said. “I hope we can collect a lot of jeans, but any amount will count. I’m super excited and it feels really good to help people out.”
