A Note on Donating Items of Quality

Donations should be things you’d lend a friend, things that actually work, have all of their pieces, and are in good condition. 

Remember that feeling when you were young and went thrifting? It was a treasure hunt! Give someone who doesn’t have a lot of money that rush. Pay it forward. 

Many donation centers are overwhelmed with things that are actually trash. The best way to avoid this is to avoid cheaply made items in the first place. We see a LOT of waste while helping people declutter. Please be mindful when you are shopping.
