T-Shirts Wanted - St Vincent de Paul's

St Vincent de Paul’s Op Shop on Rangitikei Street (opposite Noel Lemming) want your T-shirts! In an effort to reduce plastic bags at their shop, they have found a group of volunteers able to make shopping bags from old T-shirts — and they need as many clean T-shirts (sized medium to large) as they can get. T-shirts can be dropped at their shop at 248 Rangitikei Street during opening hours. Thank you in advance for your support.
