Title: clothes for trans women
Post by: boywonder159 on February 16, 2015, 08:36:42 PM
So i have decided to donate my more feminine clothes ( dresses bras bathing suits etc) to trans women who need them. this is something i really want to do and feel would be the right thing to do. Does anyone know of a place i can donate them to?

Idk if you have a tumblr, but there's actually more than one pages for things for just what you are looking for.
Here happens to just be one I've used before:

It would help to know where you are.  Places like that tend to be very local.  In Washington, D.C., I would point you to Casa Ruby, which keeps clothing on hand for trans* folks.

Bookmarked!

I will be offering some items soon.

My wife likes to donate clothing for a tax write off but the amount is small and often the clothes goes to textile mills and similar instead of going to people who need them.

I have a ton of unworn and underused clothes I'd be glad to get rid of.
