OneShirt campaign racks up the pounds
|
March 30th, 2011
The WVU and Morgantown communities came together in February to promote sustainability through recycling clothes:
West Virginia University, a national partner of the OneShirt National Collegiate Clothing Drive, collected the second-highest amount of clothing out of 90 colleges and universities that participated.
WVU collected nearly 4,500 pounds of donated clothing—second only to Concordia University with 6,000 pounds—that will be sold or recycled by Goodwill Industries to support its outreach. WVU collected clothing over one day and Concordia collected over one week.
In last year’s pilot program, WVU collected 1,500 pounds of clothing in one week.
