Here’s how you can shop and help survivors for National Upcycling Day

June 24 is National Upcycling Day

CLINTON TOWNSHIP, Mich. – A Macomb County thrift shop helps survivors of domestic violence, sexual violence and human trafficking.

The shop, Turning Point’s Second Hand Rose on Gratiot in Clinton Township was previously located in Mount Clemens.

June 24 is National Upcycling Day.

Upcycling means to transform an item into something of equal or greater value without breaking it down into raw materials.

Old clothing can fill up landfills quickly, but finding a new use can keep the environmental cleaner and help a family in need.

Kiesha Hairston, director of administration for Turning Point joined Local 4 Live to tell us more.
