How does my family deal with clothes?

copied from the project paper

the pupils of 8C class

When clothes are too small or torn, we use them as wiping cloths. We give clothes that are too small to friends that are smaller.

Nik G.

I give clothes to smaller siblings or friends. I also reuse them e.g. make shorts out of jeans.

Daniel

In my family we give clothes to Humana and family friends. They are good clothes that don’t have holes and aren’t ripped.

Jon G.

My family burns clothes when we don’t need them anymore.

Janez

We don’t donate clothes. We put them in the attic.

Lan

We donate clothes to friends and family or to humanitarian organisations like Red Cross, Karitas. We use old clothes for making toys, protecting plants. We put flowers into old shoes. We make shopping bags. We exchange clothes.

Nuša

We put old clothes to Humana.

Jakob

You can give clothes to Humana or give clothes to smaller people.

I give my worn out clothes to black bin. I give the clothes that are too small for me to my friends. I give some old clothes for wiping cloths.

Jošt

We give clothes to Humana and the clothes that are small for us, we give them to smaller people or sell them for cheap.

Ema

If we have small clothes, we give them to our cousins. If we have some ripped clothes, we put them in a black bin.

My father usually fires worn out clothes or he gives them to me. My mother usually gives her clothes that she doesn’t need to her friends. I usually give my old clothes to my cousin, Humana or I have them in my closet.
