Volcom Give Jeans a Chance Kicks Off in Taiwan!

October 7th is International Give Jeans a Chance Day!

In our quest to raise awareness around homelessness and to collect and distribute
50,000 pairs of jeans and or jackets to the homeless, we’re declaring October 7th
as International Give Jeans a Chance Day.





Kenting Surf Shop in Taiwan is participating the International Give Jeans a Chance
event and helping Volcom to reach 50,000 pairs of jeans and or jackets to the
homeless.







Jeans donated will go to local homeless shelters, close to where they were
collected. The drive lasts through October 31st, 2011.






Those that want to donate jeans and/or jackets to help homeless. You can head
into a participating Volcom retail partner and 
simply drop off jeans or jackets
in wearable condition (new or used) in the designated bin.






The campaign is already running in more than 300 stores worldwide, and is already
 seeing multiple schools and community campaigns pop up. In addition to a multitude
of drives and events planned for International Give Jeans a Chance Day, we’ve
scheduled the 
finals of our annual “Skate Night Film Battles” to take place at the
Volcom Skatepark with an estimated 300-500 people expected to attend, each of
whom is encouraged to bring a donation to get in for free.


On October 7th, if you haven’t already looked up a participating retailer and
donated jeans and/or jackets, then it’s time to do so because it’s International
Give Jeans a Chance Day and that means it’s time to do some donating!



Remember, around the globe, jeans donated will go to local homeless shelters,

close to  where they were collected. The drive lasts through October 31st, 2011.
