probaly a scam, no real charity org would pester donataters

Mr. Smith
Your reply was from Feb 2008....why is this still happening. I've requested by email and phone msgs to have my number removed from your calling list but still they call. WHY. This is a bad way of running your business. Trust me when I have clothes to donate I would probably give it to a company that doesn't peeve me off after several attempts to have it stopped. You may want to reconsider your work ethics.

I called here:

45 Montreal Road
Ottawa, ON K1L 6E8
Phone: (613) 521-1902
Fax: (613) 521-3667

and they took my number off the list. This is precisely why you should never give charities personal information.

The number listed is an automated dialer for Canadian Diabetes Association Clotheline Program, based in Ottawa, Ontario.  Our office serves the Ottawa region and Upper Ottawa valley.  We are not soliciting money, nor will we accept any if you offer to give a cash donation.  Our staff are asking for any used clothing you may have.  I suspect that if you have not given a donation in the past, the person who had your number before you may have given us a donation.If you receive a call from this number, and wish to be removed from our call list, please ask to be removed, and your phone number will be immediately stricken from our records.My apologies if our call has offended or annoyed you in any way.  it was certainly not our intention.Kevin A. SmithManager, Ottawa Business OperationsCanadian Diabetes Associationkevin-andrew.smithnospam @ diabetesnospam.ca (remove nospam as needed)

We got calls from this # too, three times in 3 days. Nobody at the end of the line.
Annoying!

please, just stop...
