(USA) - Students and staff members at John Burroughs High School have given the clothes off their backs this month for young people at the Los Angeles Gay & Lesbian Center. The clothing drive, which has garnered hundreds of shoes, socks, shirts, bottoms and tops since the end of September, was started by students in the school's Gay/Straight Alliance club. “To start off the club this year, we were trying to find a way to connect more with our members and just have a way to be more open and friendly to each other,” said Nicole Carothers, 17, president of the Gay/Straight Alliance. The nonprofit Los Angeles Gay & Lesbian Center, the sole beneficiary of the club’s efforts, serves homeless Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender and unsure youths as part of their Youth Services program.
