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.

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.

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

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 !!

Gave to them in past and they phone me all the time.Recently I put a clearly labelled bag out for them the night before for scheduled pickup the next day. Bag sat in clear view from the street for 3 days and not picked up so I am donating to a different charity now.
