Reader: I already know the answer – Salvation Army Singapore.
Uh, no, we do more research than that.
Reader: Sure you do.
Want to get new clothes, but don’t have any space left in your wardrobe? Not to worry, here’s a list of 10 places you can donate your used clothes to. Not only are you helping a child in need, you’re also saving the environment at the same time! You know the old adage: “it’s better to give than receive”. Time to get some good karma for yourself.
Who doesn’t love a good ol’ thrift shop? This place is run by the Singapore Council of Women’s Organisations (SCWO), and has everything from designer dresses to books to kitchen utensils.
You should visit the New2U Thrift shop on Tuesdays – they have some great bargains such as ½ price student discounts! If you’re lucky, you can even get good quality preloved clothes here at ONE DOLLAR. That’s right. One dollar.
All items at the thrift shop have been donated by visitors, and you can do likewise by dropping clean, preloved clothing at the SCWO Centre between 9am and 10pm daily.
Proceeds go towards the Star Shelter (a temporary shelter for women and children who are victims of violence) and other SCWO initiatives.

Reader: Sure, sure just get to the Salvation Army Singapore, already, we both know you’re going to.
I’m offended that you think so lowly of me.
I bet this place is really familiar to most of you. But have you heard of H&M CONSCIOUS?
With its tagline, “Don’t Let Fashion Go to Waste”, H&M now accepts clothes of any brand and condition. With every bag of clothes turned in, you receive a discount voucher for your next purchase! Don’t say we bojio.
Address: any H&M store in Singapore.
3) Metta Welfare Association
Metta literally means “loving kindness” – which is exactly the reason why you should donate.
You can drop off any kind of clothing, accessories, towels, bedsheets, and stuffed toys here. The collected items are then exchanged for donations at a recycling organisation, where they match the total weight of used items collected.

See? I didn’t mention the Salvation Army Singapore yet.
Ok, fine but you can’t leave them out!
Probably the most well-known one on this list is The Salvation Army. Donated items that are still in good condition are retailed in their Family Thrift Stores.
These thrift stores help you in your quest to become the ultimate budget barbie. There, you can find anything from vintage dresses to new branded goods, and the best part of all? It’s all super cheap!
Similarly, you can see your preloved clothes go to good use by dropping them off at any of The Salvation Army’s donation bins. Proceeds from the sale of items go to charity.

5) Pass it On
If you can’t find time to head down to collection points, don’t worry! Pass it On is an online platform that lets you check out the wish lists the needy under Voluntary Welfare Organisations (VWOs).
If you have those items, just let them know, and they’ll contact you directly to arrange a date and time to meet up. Super convenient!
