Planet Aid will be collecting clothes and shoes for America Recycles Day at the YMCA of Greater Nashua Craft Fair on November 14. Locals can drop off their textiles in the yellow Planet Aid bins in the building's parking lot. Planet Aid staff will also be at the event to educate the community about textile recycling.
America Recycles Day, an initiative of Keep America Beautiful, takes place on or around November 15 to promote recycling in the U.S. Planet Aid aims to bring awareness to textile recycling in celebration of this national day. Americans currently recycle only 15 percent of their clothing.
