Start Your Own Campaign

We are Looking for GJAC Ambassadors to Give Jeans & Jackets a Chance in Your Community

Do you want to do more then just drop off a couple pairs of jeans? Are you a community leader in your neighborhood, at your school? Do you want to earn your chance at a $1500 grant to a non-profit organization of your choice and then tell your story on FUEL TV?

If so, follow these simple steps:

  1. Repeat this mantra three times: “I am ready to Give Jeans and Jackets a Chance.”
  2. Decide where you’re going to set up your collection headquarters: Your home? Your school? Your church or local community center? Your retail establishment?
  3. Click here to download any posters and fliers you think you might need.
  4. Set up your collection bins.
  5. Spread the word via Facebook, Twitter, your phone, and any other way you might choose to communicate.
  6. Document your journey.
  7. Contact us at givejeansachance@volcom.com to tell us who you are, and how you’re collecting.
  8. Continue documenting your journey.
  9. By the October 31st, 11:59 PST:
    • Find a homeless shelter in your community and establish a contact there.
    • Arrange a drop off at your selected shelter.
    • If you plan on entering the contest to win, please clearly document your drop off with video and/or photos, and use our official drop off form to verify your drop off.
    • Send in your official jeans & jackets count and your story to us here.
  10. Winners of this DIY contest will be announced on Friday November 18th, 2011.
