When I first read this article it instantly had my vote. This topic is so hard to read that clothes can be used towards people that really need them. I love the idea of donating and that piece being someone’s fresh start! Very well wrote and displayed

Great infographic! The information you provided was essentially helpful because I feel like in today’s generation as mentioned it is a trend to buy from thrift stores. Ultimately, it’s great but those who struggle and truly depend on these clothing I’m sure it has become difficult. It’s nice to see how far donating can help those in need. Great job!

This is such an interesting topic for an infographic. I truly was so blown away by the statistics that were incorporated here. It is cray to think because for someone who lives a middle class lifestyle such as myself would not think a thrifted shirt for 12 dollars is expensive, but for many people that is a very big expense. It is so helpful to know that you can donate straight to church communities or shelters because that way you feel like you are making a first hand change. Great job overall on the display of information and valuable resources.

Congratulations on being nominated for an article award. This infographic was extremely well crafted and fascinating to read. This page has an astonishing quantity of specific information. Since I am aware that thrifting is a hot trend right now and that many clothes items don’t get donated to those in need, I truly loved the topic. I appreciate how the essay managed to discuss both advantages and disadvantages of thrifting while finally persuading readers to donate. I was drawn in by your title, and I really liked the graphics you selected because they were so cohesive with the tale you were presenting. I really appreciated how well-organized you were; it made the reading interesting for me.

Congrats on your nomination! Your infographic on the drawbacks of donating to thrift shops is amazing, and it presents great alternatives. I appreciate how it offers solutions to address the problem instead of just discussing it. It’s interesting to learn how thrifted clothing may not be affordable for some people. Donating directly to shelters and churches is the most accessible way to contribute. The stats incorporated are impressive and helpful, and overall, you did a fantastic job!

Hello! Congratulations on the nomination! I enjoyed the overall topic of the infographic. Donating clothes one no longer wants anymore is a small yet effective way to reduce waste on our planet. I have grown up donating and giving away clothes to friends and family, so I feel personally connected to this infographic. It is good to know that such a small act I have done for many years has done some good for other people and the planet. Great job!

The main highlight that I appreciate from your infographic is how it provides a solution to one of the problems that negatively impact the environment. Too often, people discuss problems without coming up with ways to address the problems. I especially like how it seems that donating and volunteering with Haven for Hope are the most accessible ways to contribute that any student can do.
