The Portsmouth Public Library, in cooperation with the Portsmouth Sustainability Fair and Goodwill Industries of Northern New England, hosted a women’s clothing swap on Saturday, May 8, 2010.
Participants were invited to bring in a bag of women’s gently used clothing and accessories and swap them for other donated items. Nearly 200 people attended the swap and in the end about a thousdand pounds of clothing and accessories were donated to Goodwill.
Based on the success of the first women’s clothing swap, a children’s clothing swap is tentatively planned for September 2010 and another women’s clothing swap is tentatively planned to coincide with the 2011 Portsmouth Sustainability Fair.
