Amplify the Impact of Giving in DuPage County
DuPage County, known for its vibrant communities and scenic parks, faces a growing challenge — clothing and textile waste. Every year, 11.3 million tonnes of textile waste end ups in landfills in the U.S. alone, contributing to environmental harm and missed opportunities to help those in need.
At We Pickup Clothes, we address this issue within our community by offering a simple yet impactful solution for DuPage County residents to recycle their gently used clothing and supporting local organizations. In particular, we send donations to underdeveloped countries to provide affordable clothing.
By recycling and repurposing these materials, we reduce waste, conserve energy, and minimize the environmental impact of production. This is why every donation to We Pickup Clothes brings us one step closer to creating a greener environment.
