[Share]How to Donate Clothing in NYC

Donate clothing in New York City and help someone in need. Clothing is always needed for children and adults. Not everyone is as fortunate as most and donating unwanted clothes helps to fill a need. The clothes should be in good condition. These clothes go to families that have no way to buy clothes that are needed. There are many organizations that need clothing donated including thrift stores.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
Things You'll Need:

* Unwanted clothes
* Places to donate

Step 1


Donate clothes to Housing Works in New York. The program works with at risk people that have HIV or Aids. They also work with homeless people that need clothing. They prefer clothes donations that are not damaged or soiled. They accept shoes, clothing and other household goods.

Step 2


Clean clothing can be donated to New York Neighborhood Coalition for Shelter. This organization helps people that are homeless find homes, food and clothing. They are always in need of clothing including babies, children's and adult clothing.


Step 3


Donating clothes to St. John the Divine Cathedral can be done any day of the week. They specialize in helping people in the community that need clothing, food and shelter. They provide emergency services to people who have been left with housing due to fires or other issues.

Step 4

Give donations to the American Red Cross. They work with all areas of the city. They help wherever they are needed. This includes helping displaced families find clothing and shelter. They accept donations for clothing and food as well as volunteers to distribute clothing.


Step 5

Donations can be made to thrift stores in the New York City area. The thrift stores will sell the used clothes for very cheap prices. They sustain the business by selling clothes, furnishings and everything else people do not want anymore.

NY Getaways-Lakota Wolf Preserve


Last week my friends and I went to see wolves. It's in New Jersey. Around 2 hours from New York City. May need to drive, but a good place to go for kids and family!!!

There are about 24 wolves, 2 foxes and 2 XX cats (forgot the name of the cats). It takes about 2 hours to see the wolves and the introduction from the owner.

You may check the website to find out more.
