Die kalte Jahreszeit ist angebrochen und warme Kleidung kommt wieder zum Einsatz. Ist vielleicht das eine oder andere Teil dabei, das dieses Jahr nicht mehr passt oder nicht mehr gefällt? Oder suchst du vielleicht noch (nachhaltige) Weihnachtsgeschenke, ohne etwas neues kaufen zu müssen? Dann auf zur winterlichen Kleidertauschparty im Zukunftsraum!
 
Bringe alles, was du selbst nicht mehr tragen möchtest, zum Kleidertausch und gehe mit schönen neuen Dingen nach Hause. Bitte bring maximal 10 Teile mit. Neben Kleidungsstücken können auch Accessoires, Taschen und Schuhe getauscht werden. Alles sollte ohne Flecken und Löcher sein. Übrig gebliebene Kleidung wird an eine soziale Einrichtung (Frauenhaus, Obdachlosenhilfe, …) gespendet.
 
Bring gerne Kuchen, Salat oder andere Leckereien mit. Gestärkt tauscht es sich besser!
Kaffee, Tee und Wasser gibt’s gegen eine kleine Spende im Zukunftsraum.
 
Du willst den Kleidertausch unterstützen? Wir suchen immer fleißige Personen für Auf-und Abbau. Bei Interesse melde dich unter: helena.trenks@kit.edu
