Students try to make recycling fashionable

As a way to show awareness about the environment and other global problems, Franklin High School held a fashion show made out of recycled items. They made outfits out of grocery bags, newspaper, checker boxes, and other materials. They asked each attendee to donate $1. The money they raised was donated to help the Superstorm Sandy victims.

I think that what the students did was a great idea. I like how they were able to make outfits out of recycled materials. It makes us realize that the stuff we throw away can be reused rather than completely useless. Charging $1 per attendee was also a great idea. $1 is not much to ask for and it all adds up. I like how they were able to help out the Sandy victims. Overall, I think this was awesome.
