Clothing Drive – Fundraising
Let’s recycle together, the future of our planet is in our hands

From April 16th to May 12th 2025, John Abbott College is celebrating Earth Day. The Islanders Varsity Program is hosting a Super Recyclers’ Drive. Drop off at Casgrain Sports Desk.

Your donations of clothing, shoes, bedding and small toys will be reused and redistributed. Therefore, they must be in a good condition. Those of lesser quality will be recycled. The goal of this event is to raise awareness and reduce overconsumption within the community.

The more students, teachers, parents and the community get involved, the more it pays. Thanks to you, according to the weight amassed the proceeds will be going to the Islanders Varsity Program.

How to make your bundle. Zero plastic challenge. We ask to avoid plastic bags and replace them with old pillowcases, jeans or old sheets, or compostable paper yard bags. DO NOT USE BOXES IF POSSIBLE.

Accepted equipment: All the clothing for men, women and children, handbags, scarves, hats, gloves, furs, shoes, sheets, towels, curtains, leather accessories, as well as SMALL toys in a good condition without missing pieces. For example, a farmhouse without the animals or a puzzle with missing pieces will not be accepted by the Super Recyclers. We only accept what is in good condition, clean, and can be reused. Heavily soiled and dirty clothing as well as broken toys will be removed before weighing. The Super Recyclers are not able to accept pillows, carpets and skates.
