At some point, your closet is going to be filled to the seams and you will need to go through and clean it out of all the items that you no longer want to use or wear any longer. You could choose to throw all those items in the trash, but if you have a lot of nice items that have barely been used, this can seem like a big waste of material and resources. This is when a lot of people will consider donating the item to charity to see whether they are able to help out the community and not waste the items as well. But what happens to clothing that is donated to one of your favorite charities?

Usually one of two things is gong to happen when you choose to do this. To start, the charity can choose to give the items directly to individuals or families in need. They may have a list of individuals who are looking for items and when one comes in, they will make sure that it gets to the person who needs it most. Or they may have a little area where they put the donated clothing and when someone is in need, they can come and check it out, taking what they need at the same time. This manner often provides the clothing for free.

Another option is that the charity will take the items and sell it in a thrift store. These can be used by anyone who is looking for affordable clothing that is in good shape. Anyone can go shopping there and find what they need. The charity will then take that money to help out with some of the other activities that they do in the community. This is a win-win for everyone. You get rid of some of the clothing that you no longer wear, someone else can find affordable clothing, and the charity will earn money to help out those in need.

When you are looking for a donation center near me, you may wonder how you will be able to get all of those items from your home over to the charity of your choice.
