St. Pauly\u2019s mission is to provide wearable\u00a0clothing to people who need it, both in the United States and Third World countries. Items that\u00a0can be collected include clothing, shoes, sneakers, belts, purses, linens, blankets, curtains and\u00a0stuffed toys. No rags<!--more--> or fabric scraps, pillows, toys or household goods are accepted. Donations<\/p>\n<p>No rags or fabric scraps, pillows, toys or household goods are accepted. Donations\u00a0are not cut up or shredded. Items should be placed in plastic bags (no larger than 13 gal. size)\u00a0and placed in the chute of the shed located behind St. Paul\u2019s. Donations are acceptable any time\u00a0of the day or night. This mission has provided more than 30 million garments to people all over the\u00a0world who are in need.<\/p>\n<p>Why St. Pauly collects clothing? Not only to clothe those who need it,\u00a0but to help keep clothing out of the landfills. According to the EPA, 85 percent of clothing in the U.S.\u00a0is thrown away instead of donated. This means that only about 15 percent of clothing that could\u00a0potentially be donated is collected using existing methods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>St. Paul\u2019s Episcopal Church, 204 Genesee Street, Chittenango, has been chosen by St. Pauly\u00a0Textile, Inc., as a repository for used clothing.
