News to Peruse: Fall 2020
Regifting with a Purpose

A recent walk with a Friend of ThreadED (FOT) talking about local food insecurity programs has led us to collaborate with the city's Department of Health and Human Services. Working with Quinn Etchie, Director of Youth Services, we developed an inclusive pilot program to support Newton community members (identified by HHS staff) to provide school- and work-ready clothing. This pilot will provide a new way to make the best use of the good donations we find we cannot sell profitably. We appreciate Quinn's enthusiastic response and look forward to sharing updates on this initiative!

​How Donated Clothing Becomes a Scholarship

Picture

Here's one example of how ThreadED funded a Last Dollar Scholarship last year. In partnership with Boston-based uAspire, these modest scholarships range from $1,500-2,000 and help to fill the difficult gap between the financial aid package the college student receives and the total cost of attendance for the year. The terrific items came from five different donors.  Together, just six pieces created a meaningful source of support for a Boston area student .
