PROJECT GOODWILL

Goodwill Industries of the Columbia hosted the 4 Annual Project Goodwill event on Thursday, May 3rd at the Gjerde Center at Columbia Basin College. Eight teams from local schools DECA and FCCLA clubs participated in the annual event, designing, developing and modeling, three outfits based on their musical theme.

Students spend months working on selecting the right music and creating amazing outfits. This years three categories were: Book-It - an outfit made from books, magazines or other paper materials; Re-Mix It - an outfit made out of items in a "donation box" provided by Goodwill, where students had to use a piece of every item in the box and a piece of the box, and; Mash-It Up - an outfit designed to go with the selected music. 

All of the teams were extremely creative with fun and amazing talent displayed in their outfits. The Kennewick HS DECA team took the top honors, winning the Best Overall category and $600.00.
