How Buy The Pound works:
- We (Buy The Pound) partner with local organizations such as schools and non-profits who have a need to raise funds for their group.
- We purchase the clothing from the local community organization. The community organization uses the money that it receives from us in order to support its mission or complete important community projects. We sell and distribute the cloth
ing that we purchase all over the US and World. Why choose Buy The Pound?:
- We are able to provide anywhere from $50 – $200 on average per month to local organizations that host our collection bins.
- Community members know this project is sponsored directly by the organization that hosts the fundraiser. This builds a unique connection between community members and the organizations.
- Our collection bins are well-built and very attractive.
- We monitor and empty the bins multiple times per week.
- According to the EPA, 85% of clothing in the U.S. This means that only about 15% of clothing that could potentially be re-used is collected using existing methods.
- There is an enormous global need for used clothing. We are able to distribute clothing to organizations and people all over the world who could use it. All of the clothing and textiles that we collect is used by someone somewhere.
