Every season I take time to clean out my closet and the boys’ closets to get rid of clothes that don’t fit, or aren’t something I would wear again. With growing boys it seems that they grow out of their clothes long before they wear them out. I love being able to donate the clothes we have worn and loved to a new home where they will be enjoyed. I hope that they will be worn to create new memories or repurposed into something fantastic.
With cooler weather approaching it’s time to check out your closet, shed, try on sporting equipment and get rid of the toys that your children have outgrown. This summer I got rid of 8 garbage bags full of toys, clothes, camping equipment and towels and donated them to Goodwill. With the added incentive from GLAD® I am excited to be part of the Donate4Good program.
GLAD® has teamed up with Goodwill in Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) to help increase donations through their Donate4Good campaign. To help support the campaign, GLAD® will be donating $10,000 + 10,000 black plastic bags to encourage people to purge their closets and donate those items you don’t need anymore.
