Our Impact - Revogue

Earlier during the Holidays, Revogue and Greenstitch worked together in hosting a heartwarming holiday clothing drive that brought the community together for a day of giving and creativity. The event centered around the reuse and upcycling of donated clothing, which was transformed into a special art project for the local elementary school. This drive not only promoted sustainability but also inspired creativity among the kids, showing how old clothes could be given new life. The festive atmosphere was filled with holiday cheer as families and neighbors gathered to support a meaningful cause.

In addition to the clothing collection, attendees enjoyed hot chocolate, snacks, and holiday-themed arts and crafts stations, which kept kids engaged and excited. To add to the excitement, we held a raffle-which people participated in based on how many clothes they donated-that gave participants the chance to win holiday goodies. The event captured the spirit of the season, combining community engagement with sustainable practices. It was a wonderful celebration that demonstrated the power of collaboration and creativity while supporting our shared mission of environmental care and education.

Helena Fawaz-Michigan Clothing Drive

Helena Fawaz headed her team in Michigan, where over 200 articles of clothing were donated to our Michigan-based clothing drive—including blankets, children’s clothing, and a variety of shoes—by more than 30 generous individuals who came out to support this meaningful community event. Guests were welcomed with refreshments, snacks, and engaging children’s activities such as a bouncy house, arts and crafts station, rock wall, and chalk room. Families from across different counties attended, and while their children played, many parents socialized with one another and connected with our dedicated team of volunteers. The event fostered not only donations but also lasting friendships and a true sense of community. All items collected were donated to shelters supporting homeless pregnant women and returning veterans. What began as a simple clothing drive became a powerful reminder of what we can achieve when compassion and community come together.

James Collins-Clothing Drive

On July 25, 2025, James Collins initiated his first clothes drive as a Revogue ambassador. He used two tables provided by Gray’s Creek High School’s Marching Band and brought cookies, a poster describing Revogue’s purpose and mission, and hosted a raffle in which three people each received a prize. He collected around 500 pieces of clothing and donated everything to Fayetteville Urban Ministry, a nonprofit organization who provides clothing and food to the homeless and those in need for free. Throughout the next two weeks, he collected an additional ~100 pieces of clothing and donated them to the same organization on August 8, 2025.

Jaden Church Clothing Drive

In my event about five to six bags of clothing were brought as well as luggage bags, shoes etc. I believe this event to actually be a great success because not only did friends show up but so did neighbors and even strangers due to signs near the end of the street. I would like to say we had about three bags of clothing left after the event meaning that about six bags full where successfully rehomed into better hands which is about half of all the was brought.the remaining three bags majority was children’s clothes and bigger shirts was donated to my local goodwill in merced ca where they were very grateful. The evening was very nice, my sister was out serving lemonade from a free lemonade stand. people were conversing about getting new clothing and all the good stuff. I would greet every guest and explain the cause and importance of Revogue. There were also flyers promoting the event. other than that it was a pretty hot day but we had shade company good vibes and lemonade I would say a success.

Giana Bueno Johnston-Clothing Swap

For my first project I decided to host a gathering at my house – a clothing swap. I sent out Evites to some friends and set up meeting dates to collect the articles of clothing. Through this experience my friends arrived to my home as I briefly described the process of the swap and the purpose of why we do it. My friends brought in as many clothes as they desired, and through this process we counted the amount of clothing they brought, and allowed them to choose that number as the amount they can exchange with. This idea was extremely successful! They realized how they barely wore some pieces in their closet, and clothes can come and go without harming the planet.

It was so surreal to see the difference just one event can make. They loved the idea so much they requested I host more throughout the year.

Alexandra Ponce-Clothing Drive, Revogue x NHS

I wanted to share a summary of the clothing drive I organized through NHS as an executive member. For this event, I partnered with HealthPlex to encourage participation by offering dental kits to anyone who donated clothing. The turnout was strong, with 10 volunteers and around 20–25 people who donated clothes, ranging from students to adults, all within the school community. In total, we collected approximately 30–33 bags of clothing, which were donated to the United Breast Cancer Association to support those in need. The event not only helped provide essential items to the community but also fostered engagement across our school and local organizations. I’m proud of how the drive turned out and am grateful to everyone who contributed to its success.
