BE COOL School Challenge

Coconut Telegraph

Braden River High School senior and Goodwill Youth Ambassador Brianna Moss understands not only the life-changing impact Goodwill Manasota has on the lives of community members, but also how she and other teenagers can contribute and make a difference. Moss is spearheading the BE COOL School Challenge, an effort to collect unwanted, gently used items at area high schools that can then be sold in Goodwill retail stores. Goodwill will provide to participating schools donation boxes that can be painted or decorated any way the students want. Students will then promote and hold the donation drive, collecting items such as clothing, shoes and books through April 21. Schools interested in participating are asked to contact Donna Evans at donna.evans@gimi.org.
