Is going secondhand a good thing when you can afford to buy new? I like the idea of letting my kids know that being able to spend money on new thing doesn’t mean you have to buy things that are new. And getting them secondhand uniforms and giving theirs away may, so far, be the best way to get them used to the idea of keeping clothes in circulation longer. The best thing in alm this is that they’ve never complained about wearing them. PS: They do complain about other stuffs. For those with kids, you know, as parents, the complaining will never go away 😁 #techforgood #secondhand #charityretail #charityshop #swapshop

As a parent, seeing your child thrive is the greatest joy. But at KNOSK N100-a-Day Charity Secondary School, it's more than that - it's a transformation. Listen to what a KNOSK parent has to say about her child's education. #KNOSKImpact #knoskeducation #knoskschool #EducationEmpowers #GratefulParent #parent #education #sdg4

Lessons learned from running 78km this month for Anika Legal's Giving Day fundraiser (lessons I believe can be applied to life generally)... - Good tunes make things easier. - The 2-day hangover, sadly, does exist. - Running for a cause is extremely motivating. I wouldn't have gone nearly as far without one. - Running this far is a great achievement, but it wouldn't be possible if I didn't have a safe home. I wouldn't have been able to do it without a comfortable place to come back to, clean up and rest. The housing crisis means many renters are struggling to find homes. And without access to safe, secure and affordable housing, we can't fully participate, not just in exercise but also in education, employment and our communities. If you're able, please consider donating to my Giving Day page today - https://lnkd.in/d6TcBQrF Donations are doubled, so every dollar makes a big difference 

For the month of July, our Who I Am Foundation volunteers in #Albuquerque are hosting our 11th Annual Back-to-School Supply Drive to help children in need begin the school year with all of the tools they need for academic success. With so many uncertainties about how children will return to school and what the classroom will look like, they need your help more than ever. Families with children in K-12 spent a projected $519 per child on back-to-school needs last year. For families in low-income neighborhoods, the costs are simply not realistic. Donating new school supplies to children in disadvantaged communities will make an impact on their ability to begin the school year school-ready. Items we are collecting: -Pencils -Pens -Composition Books -Combination Locks -Scientific Calculators -5-Subject Notebooks -Tissues -Hand Sanitizer -Wet Wipes -Trapper Keepers -Colored Pencils -Markers -Protractors -Paint Sets -Glue Bottles -Notebook Paper -Highlighters -Scissors -Sharpeners -Pocket Folders To donate, simply comment below and we'll have a volunteer coordinate a donation pick up!! #TeamWhoIAm_Albuquerque

For generations, families have passed down school uniforms to younger siblings—a practical tradition. But today, we’re taking it a step further. Schools and parents are joining forces to create organised exchanges, making schoolwear even more accessible and affordable for everyone. At Schoolwear Solutions, we understand the financial strain that school uniforms can place on families. That’s why we’re dedicated to either offering a full service for schools or acting as a convenient collection point for donations. Our goal? To help families access these essential items at reduced or no cost, extend the lifespan of uniforms, and foster a positive, eco-friendly culture of contributing and reusing within our communities. Whether by donating, purchasing pre-loved uniforms, or simply spreading the word, every effort counts. #SchoolwearSolutions #PreLovedUniforms #SupportFamilies #Sustainability #CommunitySpirit #EcoFriendly #EducationForAll

Remember the school uniforms. During this festive season, while some children want toys and glittery gifts, some parents simply wish to send their kids to school in decent clothes. If your school accepts uniform donations, give your kids’ outgrown ones a second life and help a parent in the process. School uniforms are out of reach for many parents. Their only viable option is secondhand. So if your kids’s school doesn’t have a secondhand uniform’s swap or shop, be the one who starts one. All it take is a few messages in the parents group and a few bags of clothes. And there you have your swap shop. #schooluniform #techforgood #charityshop #charityretail #charityfundraising
