How to Donate Clothing for Cancer Research

If you have a lot of clothing you no longer wear, don't throw it out. As long as the clothing is in good condition, a charity can benefit from it. Instead, organize the clothing and plan to donate the lot to a charity that supports cancer research.

Instructions

1. Go to the Cancer Research UK website. On this website, you'll find out how you can donate your clothing to support their cause.

2. Click on the "Shopping" link. You'll find information on dropping off your clothing and where the money from the sale of your clothing will go.

3. Put your donated clothing in shopping bags. After you read about donating clothing for cancer research, you'll want to prepare your lot. Check each clothing piece to make sure they are in good condition and then fold the clothes in neat piles. Place them in shopping bags in preparation of donating them to a shop.

4. Find a Cancer Research shop. Throughout the world, you can find different Cancer Research store locations. Go on the Cancer Research website to locate different area shops. Support the cause by dropping off your items at the shop.

Tips & Warnings

• If the cancer charity that you wish to donate to doesn't take clothing donations, consider selling the clothes in a yard sale. All proceeds from your yard sale can get donated towards cancer research.

• Before you donate to the Cancer Research shop, check out the list of items that they accept. For example, the shop won't take used undergarments, socks, etc.
