Well, Jon and I are going to be moving into our new house next weekend so I have been packing. I am trying to get rid of some of the clothes that don't fit the babies anymore. Jon's mom works on the mother baby unit at the hospital and I was thinking about having her give them to the social worker to hand out to people who need them. I don't really like goodwill, and I wouldn't get much if I sold them anyway and I just thought that would be a nice thing to do. Do you ladies think that is a good idea? cartwheel

That is a good idea. When I worked on the pediatrics floor and there were always kids that needed clothes.

oo ooo bettter idea. theres a lady here that started buying cheap lots of clothes on ebay and at goodwill and stuff and seperating into size and gender and shed even add a little toy or book and then she would give needy families bags depending on their needs. she even added a cute little note. you would have to go that far but maybe if you seperated them into unisex and boy and size then give them to her than she could have an easier time passing them out.

I think its a great idea. I myself prepared a bag with clothes that are in goos shape to give away to the needy. At the grocery store they have a bin that anyone can drop of clothes for kids in need. I don't like to give aawy torn or stained clothing just cause they are poor doesnt mean they should accept rags..right?
