Bag2School Fundraising Clothing Collection





WE ARE HAVING A FUNDRAISING CLOTHING COLLECTION 

By getting involved in the Bag2School collection you have an opportunity to sort through your cupboards and wardrobes and donate any unwanted textiles in the bag provided. In addition, it will raise awareness amongst the children of the benefits of recycling and reuse.   

The clothes have to be of good quality for reuse in Africa, Asia and Eastern Europe. 
The LauraLynn House will also receive an additional 10% from Bag2School. The LauraLynn House is the only Children’s Hospice in Ireland.   

Their mission is “The LauraLynn House cares for children with life limiting conditions, and their families, by providing high quality transitional care, home support, respite, crisis and end-of-life care.  Our services are available to children with high medical and nursing needs from birth to 18.” 

Please try to fill as many bags as you can, don’t forget to ask grandparents, friends and neighbours to have a sort out too!  You can return clothes in any kind of bag.
