Do you have an old graduation gown in your closet?Donate as PPE

[tulipsandroses]

I have my undergrad and graduate gown in the back of my closet. I will be sending them off for this effort.

This recent grad is upcycling thousands of graduation gowns to help hospitals in need of PPE


)Nathaniel Moore, a recent graduate of an MBA at the University of Vermont, is among thousands who participated in a virtual ceremony this year due to Covid-19.

Rather than letting his graduation gown go to waste, Moore, who is a physician assistant, decided to repurpose it as personal protective equipment for frontline health care workers fighting the coronavirus pandemic.
That decision inspired the 30-year-old to launch Gowns 4 Good, an initiative that gathers and repurposes graduation gowns as PPE.
"The gowns definitely signify a monumental time in their (graduates) lives," Moore told CNN, "but what good is your gown doing hanging in your in the closet for years collecting dust when it could be having an immediate impact in someone else's life?"
