The D.A.R.E. Program is doing more than just education students about saying "no" to drugs.
The program is collecting clothing for kids in third world countries.
And it's gone so well, more D.A.R.E. donation bins have been placed at several businesses throughout The Falls.
D.A.R.E. officers say the donation program is a big success, and many bins are often overflowing with items.
You can drop off your gently worn shoes, clothes, belts, hats, purses, backpacks, and stuffed animals at each bin.
The "World Wear Project" gets the items, then sells them to organizations that then send them to third world countries.
In the past week, three new donation bins have been installed, bringing the grand total to seven bins.
You can find the new bins at Red River Harley Davidson, Berend Brothers, and a doctor's office at the intersection of Fairway and Call Field.
