FOJAM has started a program to allow students who have outgrown their concert attire to donate it so students of smaller stature can wear it. If you have items of clothing that are still in good condition and wish to contribute, or if you would like to find just the right item to complete your concert finery, please contact Collette Maclean (collette.maclean@gmail.com).
