Clothing Drive by 4-H

Tripp County 4-H youth are doing their part to help a state wide project.

The South Dakota 4-H Youth Council is collecting clothing in the head to toe clothing drive statewide community service project.

On a recent Friday afternoon at the 4-H office in Winner, youth were busy sorting and folding donated clothes.
The state 4-H youth council wants persons to consider donating any type of clothing items to their local shelters said Audrey Rider, SDSU Extension state 4-H volunteer field specialist. “This is a way for people to give back to their local community and help out local families in need by giving clothes, jackets, shoes, etc.”

Counties in South Dakota will compete to see which 4-H country can donate the most items. The winning county will receive a prize.

So far in Tripp County 2,069 items have been collected.
