Clothing Donations
If you have extra jackets, shirts, or other apparel you no longer use, consider giving them a new home. These items help raise resources for ongoing mentorship, paving the way for personal connections between volunteers and young people. You can drop off articles in a designated bin, bring them to 20501 56 Ave, Langley, BC V3A 4H8, or coordinate a convenient pick-up from your home. Everything you share has a role in building support networks for adolescents throughout the region.

This team effort broadens the scope of possibilities for children in Langley.
Frequently Asked Questions
May I donate books alongside clothing in one box?
Yes, bundling reading materials with garments is fine, provided both meet quality requirements. Separating them by category may simplify sorting, but it’s optional. Our goal is to make sure everything reaches the right channels, so either approach will work.
How should I evaluate if my books are still acceptable?
They should be in readable condition, with minimal damage and no missing sections. Markings or handwritten notes can be okay, as long as the text remains understandable. If a book is severely damaged, recycling may be a better option than donating.
Will all genres of literature help these mentoring efforts?
Yes, assorted genres—from kids’ picture stories to adult non-fiction—can inspire curiosity among program participants. Even specialized topics can prompt new interests. As long as volumes are age-appropriate and intact, they likely have value.
What’s the simplest way to schedule a pick-up at my home?
Start by heading to BigClothingDonation.com. Confirm which items you plan on contributing, and then Book a Pick-Up for a date you prefer. Our partners will coordinate collection details, making sure the process runs smoothly.
Where do the proceeds go after my donated goods are collected?
Everything sent to Value Village helps generate funds that bolster our volunteer-led mentorship programs. These programs give structure, encouragement, and potential life-long bonds to participants. By choosing to donate here, you make a real difference for youth who rely on this support system.
