Recycle your clothes for aid

From: Planet Aid

Take your old clothes to a PlanetAid collection center, where they will be reused and sold to support community development projects in Africa and Asia.

Your donations will guarantee not only more money for important development work being done overseas but also keeps your old clothes out of landfills, where they would add to a worldwide environmental impact.
