From March 18 to April 1, for the fourth consecutive year, independent fashion boutiques across France are hosting Vide-Dressing Week—a spring clothing drive benefiting the French Red Cross. It's straightforward: sort through your wardrobe, drop off donations at a participating store (full list available here), and let the Red Cross handle redistribution to those in need. Together, let's make a difference with this annual empty-your-closet initiative!
Step 1: Embrace spring renewal by sorting through your cupboards.
Step 2: From March 18 to April 1, deliver your clothing donations to your chosen participating store (find the list on www.vide-dressingweek.fr starting mid-February 2015).
Step 3: On April 1, your local shopkeeper hands over the collected bags to French Red Cross volunteers. Your donations will stock association changing rooms and shops, reaching vulnerable individuals supported by the organization.
