The #ThriftedTreasures Challenge
Discover sustainable style with the #ThriftedTreasures Challenge at Goodwill Central Coast! This initiative invites you to find and personalize unique thrifted items.
By sharing your unique finds and creative upcycles on social media with the hashtag, you become part of a wider community of eco-conscious fashion enthusiasts. This campaign not only celebrates individual style but also encourages a cycle of generosity through the act of donating.
Let your style tell a story of environmental care and community support, and encourage others to join in by sharing their own #ThriftedTreasures!
Great to see you here! Join our GCC Community!
