A clothing drive and bake sale will be held on Sunday, May 22 at Old Hammondtown School, from 9 a.m. to noon. Dropped-off bags of old clothes will be purchased by Bags 2 School and those proceeds will be donated to Gifts to Give of New Bedford. Proceeds from the bake sale will also benefit Gifts to Give.

Items being collected include gently used, stained, or torn clothing, shoes, belts, purses, towels, sheets, blankets and hats. Stained and torn items are recycled into insulation or wiping cloths.

Just drive to the school and the clothes will be taken from your car. Baked goods will also be brought to cars for purchase, so there is no need to even leave the vehicle.

The drive is part of a Bar Mitzvah project of a local student.
