SkillsUSA from Jersey Cityis collecting jeans for Teens for Jeans, a national campaign in partnership with Aéropostale and DoSomething.org, encouraging young people across the county to donate gently used jeans to help homeless youth.
Over a million young people experience homelessness in the United States every year and one of the most requested items that young people in homeless shelters ask for is a pair of jeans. In the past seven years, young people across the country have collected over 4.3 million pairs of jeans through Teens for Jeans.
Members of the community can support the SkillsUSA drive by dropping off their gently used denim at any of SkillsUSA locations from January 12 to February 15, 2015.
