Waldo clothing drive helps people in need

By Kenny Ingham

The clothing drive has been happening for awhile now and we must donate clothes because the clothes will go to needy people. If we can reach 3,000 pounds of clothes, we will have no dress code every other Friday. There is a white and red meter in the lobby that shows our progress, and from what I have seen we could do a little better. I chose to interview Mr. Sackley because he helped plan this out.

Q1: Why do we have clothing drives here at school?
A: “There are so many people that need help because of our bad economy, and we are helping them in one way.”
Q2: Where do the clothes go?
A: “It goes to the Union Gospel Mission, and they send it to the needy.”
Q3: When did we have our first clothing drive?
A: “It was last year.”
Q4: Were there any other donations before this?
A: “Waldo helps in a variety of ways.”
Q5: What is your opinion on clothing drives?
A: “I think they are fantastic, and I hope students and staff really participate because this is for a worthy cause.”

I also hope that we donate clothes to the needy because it will be helping the needy to get clothes and us to get out of dress code every other Friday. So try and donate what you can. Really try.
