Or to Housing Works through re-fashioNYC if there's a box *in your building* or at any of these locations: http://www.housingworks.org/donate/drop-off-donations/<br />And, too, there's the clothing recycling program at all the greenmarkets: check this page out http://www.grownyc.org/clothing They sort things and literally take all fabrics. They are at the Sunday Tompkins Square greenmarket.
