“Let’s End Poverty clothing and book drives will boost the local economy and support CHOICE Humanitarian’s efforts to end poverty around the globe”
WEST JORDAN, Utah – CHOICE Humanitarian today announced its new Let’s End Poverty program that will help companies and schools partner with CHOICE Humanitarian to end poverty through clothing and book drives.
“We can end poverty by using our surplus,” said Chris Johnson, Program Director at CHOICE.
Already thousands of pounds of clothing, books, corporate idle assets, and household items have been donated and recycled locally to benefit our own community and to support CHOICE’s efforts to end poverty in Bolivia, Guatemala, Mexico, Nepal, and Kenya.
Let’s End Poverty Regional Directors Kaiti Millard and Alexa Ramsey love books!
Recycling locally stimulates the local economy and eliminates waste that contributes to the nearly 50 percent of clothing that ends up in landfills. The funds generated from this transfer go directly to support business and literacy training, clean water systems, and filling other needs in rural villages living in extreme poverty.
If you are interested in hosting a clothing and book drive at your company or in your neighborhood, please contact Let’s End Poverty Regional Directors Kaiti Millard at (385) 202-4061 or Alexa Ramsey at (385) 985-3937.
