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".

This is legit.It is the cloths line program.I have delt with them many times.

This number called, did not speak, then hung up

These guys (telemarketers) pretend to be a charity, but in fact are a big business making profits from your used clothing and items.  Everyone involved along the line from the person calling you, to the driver, to the store-front (Value Village) selling your used items makes money.  Say your old jeans sell for $15, only $0.25 goes to charity.  Give to a true charity like the SALVATION ARMY - they only have volunteers and don't inflate prices for the needy.  Value Village is a for-profit-organization from the USA.  The main owners are Tom Ellison, son of the founder Bill Ellison, and Freeman Spogli & Co. a private equity company.

Called and did not leave message! If this is a proper charity, then they would leave a message and not be so secretative about what they are calling about !!

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