Elizabeth in Kyoto Prefecture is leaving Japan in a month's time, having spent two years here.
"I have a lot of clothes and shoes I am not taking back with me, but it seems a waste to throw them away. I can't seem to find anyone to donate them to. Do you know of any charities which accept used clothing?"
The Salvation Army accepts secondhand clothing and with this organization you know that all donations go to help the homeless, elderly and families in need, etc.
