Our Do Something Club was just formed at the end of this school year. We wanted to end the school year with a project. We held a Jeans for Teens Drive for 2 weeks. Over the two weeks we collected 60 pairs of jeans. We are donating the jeans to a local church's thrift store in efforts of helping area teens with the clothing needs they face.

Hello, my name is tyler allen and i was wondering if you mind if we did the same thing you are doing. i am tired of sitting around and doing nothing and i want to help out and i thought that this was a good idea. if you would like to reach me my email is pchskid123@yahoo.com
AS I am also a part of Dosomething and just introduced our existing club with it. I am really proud to be part of it and go through so many things and activities they have been doing or being done which always inspired the member of our club(Committed Feet). So as per your work of jeans for teens I am really impressed to see your works, and it was much success I think. More to do such activities among more needy client we will help you to identify. Like here in my Country Nepal we have so many children living with out clothes. Rather there exist much peoblem in them, so its good idea if we could more extend your project till my place in Nepal. Jeans for street Children of Nepal.
