Woman’s Club Of Morristown Collecting Bras For Charity


The Woman’s Club of Morristown is
currently hosting its fourth annual “Bra Drive” to benefit women in need.
New and lightly used bras can be dropped off at the Woman’s Club
headquarters in Morristown, weekdays between 8 a.m. and 8
p.m.  The cutoff date for collection is Nov. 1.

All sizes and styles are needed, including specialized models like
post-surgery and maternity bras.  The garments must be in good, wearable
condition, with functional clasps and straps.  Tags should be left on new
bras.  Previously worn bras should be laundered.  The garments will be
distributed to Howard’s Mission and Dress for Success Morris County.
Those few bras deemed unwearable will be sent to The Bra Recyclers, an
Arizona-based textile recycling company whose mission is to reduce the
amount of textiles going to landfills by recycling or reusing them.
