One man’s old clothes is another man’s new clothes; donate your old clothes.

While you enjoy your closets of hundreds of garments and send your old garments to the landfill, know that there are millions of people across the globe who don’t have clothes to wear and your old garments which are destined for the landfill could be some of their best garments they are ever going to get. As such, we encourage you to donate your old garments instead of sending them to the landfill or burning them. They can put smiles on the faces of millions of people across the globe.
