Several weeks ago, John Bates, Artsci카지노 게임 컬렉션™84, saw a used Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s leather jacket for sale online for $20. The jacket 카지노 게임 컬렉션” which he eventually bought for $10 카지노 게임 컬렉션” helped spark an idea between him and his sister, former Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s 카지노게임사이트 Alumni Association President Sue Bates, Artsci카지노 게임 컬렉션™91.
카지노 게임 컬렉션śWe thought there must be students who would love to have a jacket but just don카지노 게임 컬렉션™t have the money,카지노 게임 컬렉션ť says Mr. Bates. 카지노 게임 컬렉션śSpending $400 (for a new jacket) is a lot.카지노 게임 컬렉션ť
Now, the Bateses are launching a new initiative to buy used jackets and donate them to students who could not afford them otherwise.
카지노 게임 컬렉션śEveryone makes the assumption that all kids who go to Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s have lots of money,카지노 게임 컬렉션ť says Mr. Bates. 카지노 게임 컬렉션śI went to Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s and I did not have a lot of money. It was all I could do to buy my jacket. In fact, I couldn카지노 게임 컬렉션™t afford a liner. A liner was about another $40 which was like another $400 to me.카지노 게임 컬렉션ť
Jackets are big part of the Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s culture and go back as far as 1925, according to the Jackets are part of school tradition and include a set of rules, such as first-year students not being allowed to wear theirs until exams are complete. Jacket crests, bars, and flags let others know about a student카지노 게임 컬렉션™s affiliations and accomplishments.
The Bates consider their jackets to be treasured items. Their favourite family photo is of John, Sue, and their dad, Ron Bates, Com카지노 게임 컬렉션™60, (who bought his jacket in 1956) all proudly wearing their jackets at the Homecoming football game in 2015.
Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s jackets have not changed much over the years, so it is easy to take an older jacket and replace the numbers and crest to make it suitable for a current student. So far, the Bates have purchased and donated four jackets and have offers out on several others.
After acquiring two nursing jackets, Ms. Bates reached out to the School of Nursing and an administrator was thrilled to pass them along to two students.
Alumni who are interested in donating a jacket or selling it for less than $50 can email Sue Bates.
카지노 게임 컬렉션śWe just want to get old jackets into the hands of students who would really appreciate it,카지노 게임 컬렉션ť says Ms. Bates.
