I give to our City Habitat for Humanity. I use to give to ARC but one day when driving around the back to drop off good clothing, they were tossing bags into a 3/4 filled to the top huge truck. I didn' t want my clothing to be tossed in there. the bags and stuff were crushed like in a trash compactor. i know they go somewhere, but where? no one would want them after being so badly handled. I give what can be used. anything else goes into the trash.
