I really wanted these bags of clothes to go to someone with a desperate need. Because the holidays had just passed many charities have very limited storage space to be able to accept donations. I made a few calls and those charities with the biggest needs are just really difficult to get to right now or don't have space right now. I cant drive in snow. Since the DI has a location close to me, they were the recipients of these 5 bag fulls of clothes and shoes. They also received mugs, water bottles, pans, plates, etc. and basically any other dish that I could clean out of my cupboards that we don't use.
After making the donation I was talking about it with some friends and I learned about some charities that have been calling and asking for donations and will will come and pick up my donations. Those charities will be first on my list when winter is over and I can do a good spring cleaning.
