It doesn't matter, to me, what those churches do or don't do with the clothes they collect, because I have no interest in supporting their specific charitable activity. There are lots of people who do, they won't miss my contribution.

Meanwhile, I give where I choose to give, when I choose to give, and for the reasons I choose to give. I was asking for non-religious-based charities to give clothing to. ONE person out of 11 posts in this thread answered the question I asked. I thanked that person already up-thread. Their suggestion was the Hospice thrift shop up on 441. It was a great suggestion. I would've called it next, if Haven had said they didn't want any more women's clothing donations.

But Haven said they'd gladly take it.
