Collection of used clothing and household items is resuming. Arrangements are underway to take your used women’s clothing, shoes, handbags, jewelry, textiles, and household items, all in good condition, to Goodwill Industries in Elmsford.
Goodwill appears to be the only large center with personnel standing by to accept donations.
Jeff O’Donnell reported that Midnight Run in Dobbs Ferry is also open to receive men’s clothing, furnishings and shoes, and he is volunteering again to deliver your donations to this store.
The target date for delivery is Wednesday, November 4. In the meantime, please look through your closets, kitchens and storage areas for items in good condition and suitable for resale.
Note that your donations must be packed and delivered to a location to be determined on Tuesday, November 3. A reminder will appear in the Spotlight issue of Monday, October 26, and you will find a flyer with more details in your cubbies shortly.
Your donations in kind are particularly important at a time when many families and individuals have little or no income.
