Which organizations do clothing pick-ups? And is the clothing drop-off for Bnei Rafael still E. 22 between Q and R in Brooklyn? TIA.

Donate at your own risk. Most places including pick purple sell your clothes for a few cents per pound for profit. If you want your clothes to be used, give them to someone who needs them.

Yep. Which explains why Ill see uniforms from chassidish and Bais Yaakovs schools at goodwill stores, as well as non-jewish thrift stores.

It saddens me that people don't know what's happening with the clothes they donate.
