With natural calamities happening left and right recently, there’s always a need for donations. Whether you are donating to NGOs or your local charities, another good thing about donating is that it is also good for the environment.
Lending your pre-loved clothes (yet still in good condition at the very least) is a very good idea if you have an excess of them, and here are some recommended organizations where you can give them away.
1. Donate a Toy Philippines
Who says that donating is exclusively only for food and clothing? Somewhere out there, there’s a kid who wants to have a teddy bear or a toy car, regardless if it’s pre-loved. Through donated toys, Donate a Toy Philippines is a non-profit organization that aims to help kids develop their physical and emotional well-being by providing less fortunate kids with toys.

2. Reading Club 2000
They say that reading is one of the best habits anyone can develop, and how good of an idea it is if you can help out a kid with such habit by lending your pre-loved books. Reading Club 2000 is a non-profit organization based in Makati and reportedly received books as donations on a daily basis. These books are then sent out to various schools, orphanages, and many more.

3. Humble Sustainability

4. Declutter Manila
The COVID-19 pandemic has definitely made e-commerce a common thing now both for buyers and sellers. And one of the most commonly bought items are clothes, where online clothing shops like SHEIN have stocks readily available. If you’re one of those who bought a clothing item and only wore it once to achieve that OOTD, Declutter Manila is a public Facebook page and a good place to donate these pre-loved clothes. You can also find other users and barter your clothes with theirs.
