Please do your homework before you mislead people.Yes, they are the Canadian Diabetes - Clothesline Program...No they don't sell in the way you RICHARD are saying... IDIOT!They bundle everything up onto a pallet.   Not just clothes... They also accept other donations.They sell by WEIGHT, not by "Per Items".Yes, they do pay their employees and do not have "Volunteers".The Value Village has some "volunteers".  Again, NOT the Canadian Diabetes Association.Because of this "System", they are able to get more items to help more people who are "down and out".The reason "Value Village" keeps their prices low enough to make it affordable is because "Value Village" screws their employees, screws over volunteers and take advantage of people with sound syndrome or other forms of disabilities and make money off their labor.The Canadian Diabetes - Clothesline Program is a good thing to have, but "Value Village" is the wrong business to associate with.How do I know this?  My wife used to work for them for 10+years and got sick of what Value Village was doing.   Oh yeah, their benefits?  A 15% discount at value Village.  So 15% for buying garbage or "other man's treasures".

Have you ever been to the Salvation army lately? Just like all the other thrift stores they"re OVERPRICED for free donated items.

This number is the Canadian Diabetes Clothesline pickup.  They are not telemarketers and NOT a scam.   I give to them regularly,

Canadian Diabetes Clothesline calling about any extra clothes that they can come pick up.Don't listen to the above posters complaining about for-profit enterprises, these guys are the real deal doing good things for people. In this case, I recommend you pick it up and listen to what they have to say, and then make your own decision on whether you want to give or not.

Robo calls with no one on the other end, up to 10 times a day, and the regulators don't seem to care.

they want your used clothes to re-sell to value village so they get the value of your old stuff.
