Bundleupyeg smashes winter clothing collection goal

The grassroots, winter clothing drive #Bundleupyeg has reached its lofty goal for the season.

The Edmonton initiative had a goal of collecting 1,300 bags of winter clothing for the city’s homeless. On Monday, #Bundleupyeg announced 1,514 bags of clothing had been donated in 31 days.

Founder Jasmine Topham posted an emotional video, where she expressed what it meant to surpass the goal just six years after she started the initiative, which collected 40 bags in its first year.
