Donate Gently Used Clothing to Raise Money for The Arts in Your School

As every parent knows, kids grow up all too quickly, outgrowing their clothes seemingly faster than you can blink your eyes. Moms and dads also know outgrown pants, skirts, shirts, shoes and other clothing items tend to accumulate when they're no longer wanted or needed. Children also need schools to get a proper education and as we all are aware, arts programs are in desperate need of more funding.

Schoola donations benefits schools like Yick Wo Elementary

What to do about these predicaments? That's where Schoola comes in, featured in top-tier media like Fox News, the Los Angeles Times, Forbes and Parenting Magazine. This is a company dedicated to solving both problems at the same time: upcycling well-known childrens brands of clothing that you donate with 40% of the proceeds from sales going to the school in need that you designate. 

Every Schoola bag filled translates into money for your school

Cleaning out overstuffed closets while simultaneously fundraising money for your child's school or supporting the school of your choice has never been easier. All you have to do is request a Schoola donation bag which will be sent to you. Then fill it up with gently used apparel that follows the company's contribution guidelines and mail the postage-paid bag back to Schoola.

Brand Name Merchandise Your Kids Will Love

Constantly buying new clothes is one of the biggest expenses facing parents raising boys and girls today. The Schoola online shop is not only the place to donate your hand-me-downs. It's also your go-to source to purchase gently worn clothing at huge savings in the next size up. Take a look, this is a great place to shop for quality merchandise at big savings -- and schools benefit from a significant portion of the proceeds.

What could be better than both giving you the opportunity to give back to your school and reaping huge savings for parents on clothes you buy for your child?

Schoola is A Win-Win for You & Your Child's School

Even if your children are almost grown up like mine are, that doesn't have to stop you from joining me in participating in the Schoola Adopt-a-School campaign. I'm planning on cleaning out all four of my kids closets before the end of the summer and earmarking the money raised to support arts programs at my adopted school of Yick Wo Elementary School in San Francisco.
