Our 2024 Clothes Swap was a huge success! We helped reduce waste AND raised funds to support our Butterfly Garden Project!
Our long-advertised Clothing Swap (which was sponsored by our Environmental Action Team) was held on April 13th. We had people lined up at 10am with enthusiastic swappers enjoying themselves all day. Our community welcomed newcomers who both swapped and assisted. Donations were good with our final tally to come.

Of course, special thanks to all those who donated and swapped to make this event possible. A HUGE Thank YOU!
Proceeds for this event will help support the Environmental Action Team’s Butterfly Garden Project. Leftover clothing was donated to the Good Stuff Connection thrift store, which is operated by the North Shore Crises Services Society (a registered charity dedicated to promoting a secure and abuse-free environment and resources for women and children fleeing violence).
