Has anyone donated their lo's clothes

JuliansMommy

My son has a lot of clothes that doesn't fit and I'd like to donate it to someone who really needs it. Any ideas who I can donate it to?

I give to Goodwill.

There's a place called 1st life or 1st way or something to that effect where I had to go to get my "official" pregnancy test before the prenatal office would see me since I didn't have insurance. They give out lots of stuff to people who need it like diapers, formula, clothes, etc. so I donate to them since they don't seem to get a lot. It's completely staffed by volunteers. I like to give back to them bc they helped me when I first found out I was pregnant. They were very caring and I appreciated that since I showed up bawling my eys out lol I get enfamil checks in the mail and since I use similac, I use the enfamil checks on cans of liquid formula and give it to them, as well as my unused diapers. As for clothes, I don't donate them. I've space bagged them for my next child. But anything after that that is in good shape, I'll once again donate to this place. Maybe if there's a women's shelter near you you could do that? Or like @sands3 said, there's always good will/salvation army. Sorry this is a novel...but I feel strongly about this :-)

@mam082711- Good idea I'll have to look for a women's shelter in my area. I thought about goodwill or salvation army but they just turn around and sell it.

I was wondering the same thing too, if u find a good place let me know

I actually just gave some clothes to my cousin that just had a lil girl but normally I give it to the resource center.

i worked for goodwill and they act like they give to people but really they are about themselves they fired me because my materinty leave was up the day befor i was released by the docs

@juliansmommy maybe ask your OB if they know of one? Or call your social services office? Idk who to ask bc I've heard that most women's shelters are not made very public bc they don't want the men to be able to find them as most are abused women leaving a bad situation. Idk how true that is though, I could totally be making that up.

JuliansMommy

@excitedforoctober- will do buddy:)
@mrsthompson34- see I wish I knew someone I could give it to. What's the resource center?
@skysma-I've actually heard that from a lot of people.
@mam082711- That makes sense, I'll make some phone calls tomorrow. Btw you're son is so handsome:)

mam082711

Look for small places in your city. We have place called without a crib that donate to people who can't afford stuff. They don't sell it, just donate.
