DONATE, DON ‘ ‘T WASTE … is a powerful campaign by Association of Charity shops. The main aim of the campaign is to urge people to donate their unwanted clothes by decreasing the amount of landfill dumping, thereby encouraging green living.This is a very thoughtful campaign which can persuade people to think before trashing their unwanted yet useful clothes which may not be worn from years.
If each UK household donated one extra black bin bag of clothing, we could save 25 million bags from landfill and raise over £740 million for charity. Clothes which cannot be sold in-store can be sold to textile merchants to raise money for good causes.(Contents from http://www.charityshops.org.uk/donate.html).
