[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]For clothes to go to the needy, donate directly to a shelter.[/b] For example, this family shelter: http://www.nccf-cares.org/family-services/greentree-shelter/[/quote] Those clothes may or may not wind up in the hands of the needy: http://www.npr.org/blogs/parallels/2013/05/21/185596830/the-global-afterlife-of-your-donated-clothes I am one of the affluent thrift shoppers who posted on this thread. I am not a SAHM. I am a lawyer with 20 years' experience and a high HHI. I thrift because it is good for the environment; supports the local charities (which do not distribute used clothing to the poor but, rather, use the proceeds from my purchases for their programs); and saves our family money.[/quote]
