Winter is coming to a close, and you’ve been digging out all your spring and summer clothes to prep for the warm weather that’s to come. Chances are, your style has evolved since last year and as you pull out all the dresses, tees and sandals you used to wear, you might just be wondering what in the world you were thinking when you bought those shorts.
We’ve got the solution to your fashion woes—we’ve partnered up with our friends at DoSomething.org to give away a $500 H&M gift card so you don’t have to be stuck with last season’s wardrobe! Not only that, you’ll have the opportunity to make a real change with the clothes you’ll never wear again. DoSomething.org has launched Comeback Clothes, a campaign that’ll give new life to old clothes!
The vast majority of fabric can be recycled, yet 85 percent of all textiles end up in landfills each year. That’s 11.1 million tons gone to waste—or in other words, the equivalent of 70 billion t-shirts. Yikes.
Change this by getting involved with the Comeback Clothes movement! From now until May 31, stop by your local H&M store to donate your old clothes instead of trashing them. You’ll score 20 percent off your next purchase at H&M, plus a chance to win a $10,000 scholarship or a $4,000 school grant.
To find out more (including how to run a drive on your own campus!), enter your email address below—and you’ll also be entered to win a $500 H&M shopping spree so you can fill your closet with all the latest trends!
