Donations

It often occurs that donations and getting things to Goodwill and Salvation Army takes more energy and effort then it should. Some clients really like to put effort into good donation places for very specific items. Although, I don’t mind that, it usually even more time and effort.

Recently, I was notified about this new website. After organizing your home, DonationTown.org will help you schedule a free donation pick up with a local charity to collect any unwanted clothes, furniture or household items. A Chicagoland area charity will send a truck out to your house to pick up the donations and you will receive a tax deduction receipt for your donations. Donation Town is 100% free for donors, charities and  profesional organizers.

Think of Donation Town as a one stop shop. Many chairities are listed and a lot of information is given about what areas they service, what they collect, and how you can easlily schedule a pickup.

Cheryl- Thanks for commenting on my blog. I appreciate your feedback. I haven’t seen the computer organizer, although it sounds really good. Sorry I can’t be of help there. As far as the cloth sanitary napkins/pads- I guess I’m not understanding what you’re needing- are you looking for someone to purchase them after you’ve made them or are you looking to donate them to someone/somewhere specific? Hope you’re having a great week! Amber

I’m former Southern Illinoisan! I moved to NC in 98, my son was stationed here @ Ft. Bragg!

I’m a Licensed Practical Nurse, divorced mom of 6, 14 grandchildren. Have you seen this organizational tool for the computer? It has pockets, cellphone holder, ink pen? I found it on the internet and I lost the paperwork! Any tips for a 59 soon to be 60
year old nurse who is over numerous programs that require alot of paperwork.

I work in a ambulatory clinic in an Army Hospital.

2nd: I’ve started up a group in which we will
be making cloth sanitary napkins/pads, I was
told about one organization will take our napkins/Pads, but do you know if Donation Town will find us a n organization.

Thanking you in advance,
