The HSO at George Washington Elementary School is putting on a clothing drive beginning Thursday. As you start weeding through gently used garments to see what you have to give, here's what you need to know about the drive:

• George Washington Elementary on Fardale Ave is having a clothing drive from 9 a.m. on Thursday, Oct.11 through the 4 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 13.
• There will be a drop off container located in the driveway on the right of the school. 
• Items should be contained in securely tied large bags.  
• Items such as clothing, belts, shoes, purses, stuffed animals and bicycles are accepted. 
• Only hard plastic toys are accepted in boxes maximum size of 24" by 24" by 21".
• The items are donated to relief victims inside the United States and if there is a natural disaster outside the U.S. 
• Some of the proceeds will go to George Washington School to support the many student activities offered throughout the school year.
