JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Students at Episcopal School of Jacksonville students have created "Toga Tuesdays" to take a break from classes and give back to the community.
Students came to school in togas then donated the sheets to a new project at First Coast News called, "Sheets of Hope."
The project urges people to donate used or new sheets to the City Rescue Mission. Senior Natalie Harper researched the need.
"At the City Rescue Mission, they go through 500 sheets every day," she explains.
Often the sheets are given to homeless people when they return to the streets.
Drop off your sheets Friday, Dec. 16 at the St. Johns Town Center or the Orange Park Mall from 6 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Look for the tent outside the malls where volunteers will be collecting.
