Hello, my name is Roxy and I am 13 years old. As soon as I turn 14, I can start volunteering at local shelters and such. But I have a lot of extra clothes and shoes that I don't need anymore. What kind of programs let me donate my clothes to needy familes in my local area. I don't do good will because they just resell it. I want to give mine away. I'm in Texas, if that helps.

Churches are a good idea
Goodwill
Salvation Army
They may resell things but the money
they get helps provide
funds for the programs they run
like
Good Neighbor Fund-helps with fuel for low income
Thanksgiving & Christmas Baskets (food & gifts-low income)
They collect coats-they give away free for the winter
When disaters strike,help is provided from funds too

People aren't unsatisfied with lifestyles within the U.S. simply with the political management. Most of the matters you recounted had been round decades and such a lot folks respect it. Being unsatisfied with the president isn't a brand new factor. While I love being an American, the whole lot by no means has been or will ever be ideal. I voted, thus I have the proper to whinge approximately our elected management. I am additionally a Christian and pray day-to-day however I am now not blissful that we permit a couple of folks kick God out of faculties govt structures, shops, and so forth. although eighty five% of the populace supposedly believes in God. Why does congress and the President now not combat for almost all's rights? While I consider such a lot of your feedback, you'll have disregarded the facet approximately our "quality President " and his tax cuts to firms that enabled them to make list earnings from folks who now have got to make a decision among gasoline or remedy. And incidentally, I voted for him.

Local churches will be glad to take them, they can give them for burn out victims and so on. That is very nice of you, pass that idea on to your friends, I am sure one of your local churches will have a clothing thrift shop were people can come and get what they need for free after fires or natural diseasters.

Giving your things away may not help them but the government can do something e.g. by creating more jobs!
