Alternatives to Donation Bins:

You may also want to reconsider where you haul your discarded clothes off to.

If you have good-quality, gently-used clothing, consider donating them to places such as:

Dress for Success and Career Gear (professional attire for the disadvantaged)

Cinderella Project and Fairy godmothers Inc. (prom dresses for those who cannot afford one)

Your local church charity that may distribute them to the needy within your community

Local women’s shelters and crisis centers (call first to find out what kind of donations they accept)

The Big Brother/Big Sister Foundation

Brides Across America (provides free second-hand wedding gowns to military brides)
