Redmond’s Nikola Tesla STEM High School is partnering with Clothes for the Cause, a fundraising company that collects clothes in exchange for cash, for an event to raise money for Grad Night. Tesla STEM is hosting a clothing and textile drive, accepting clothing and shoes of any kind, in any condition, from now until Jan. 31 at the school, 4301 228th Ave. N.E.
Following the clothing drive, Clothes for the Cause will pick up the donations and provide Tesla STEM with the total of its fundraising effort, measured in dollars per pound.
“We are thrilled to be able to help STEM High School in its time of need,” said Susan Hovey. “Clothes for the Cause and STEM HS make it easy for everyone in our community to contribute by collecting things, free of charge, that our friends, family and neighbors already have in their houses.”
From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Jan. 28-31, the Clothes for the Cause trailer will be at the school to collect clothing, shoes, hats, gloves, towels, sheets, blankets, quilts, drapery, purses, belts, rugs and stuffed animals.
