Not many people may know this, but 15th July is National Give Something Away Day! Although we may feel like we donโt have anything to give away, if we look closely, there are actually a variety of items we donโt need that other people can benefit from. Some of them may include:
Old Clothing and Accessories: Go through your wardrobe and consider donating clothes, shoes, accessories, and bags that you no longer wear or need. These items can be given to charities or local thrift stores.ย
Books: If you have books that you've already read or are no longer interested in, consider sharing them with others. Donate them to local libraries, schools, or community centers, or host a book swap with friends and family.ย
Craft and Hobby Supplies: If you have excess craft materials, art supplies, or hobby-related items that are collecting dust, donate them to schools, after-school programs, or community centers. These items can inspire creativity in others.
Children's Toys: Children often outgrow toys or lose interest in them over time. Donate gently used toys to local charities, hospitals, or organizations that support children in need.
Non-Perishable Food: Review your pantry and identify non-perishable food items that are still safe to be consumed. These items can be donated to food banks or community food drives to help those facing food insecurity.
