Donating Clothes

In the last weeks of 2023 and the beginning of 2024, I set a simple goal: gather 50kg of clothes for charity. Little did I know, this journey would turn into an avalanche of generosity, leading to a mountain of over 80kg of clothes, shoes, belts, purses, and more, thanks to the incredible support of friends and the local community.

I placed a donation box in my gym, which became a small beacon of communal goodwill. The response was overwhelming, and the box quickly filled.

The next hurdle was finding the right charity. My criteria were specific: no religious affiliations, just a direct, human-to-human connection. That's when I stumbled upon Eiamdee Recycle. This morning, as the founder himself picked up the donations, he shared his plan to collaborate with a local laundromat. Every piece we collected will be washed, sorted, and then find a new home in orphanages, schools, and with those in dire need.

This experience was a reminder of the power of community and the impact of collective action. I set out to gather 50kg of clothes, but ended up with something much heavier: a profound sense of connection and the undeniable proof that when we come together, we can create waves of positive change.
