Portsmouth Teens Display their Refashioning Skills





We had a great time last week refashioning Goodwill finds into new, fashionable clothing!  Goodwill partnered with the Portsmouth Public library to offer a series of teen refashion classes.  We held our first class last Tuesday and it was a huge hit – everyone got to go home with a newly made creation.  A big thank you to Jennifer at Recover Girl and everyone involved who helped make this a great success!

Do you want Goodwill to host a similar event in your community?  Please leave a comment and let us know!
