HAMBURG, N.Y. (WKBW) — A dry cleaner in the Southtowns has launched a monthly program giving away free children's clothing to give back and help the environment.
Kathy Benzinger, who has operated a Benzinger's Clothing Care business for 29 years, started "Free Fridays" this summer in partnership with local consignment shops. The program takes place on the first Friday of each month in the parking lot.
"People should know that every second, a truckload of clothing ends up in the landfill," Benzinger said. "I thought we can do something about this."
