Sending clothes to Iraq?

[crystaltips]

I have had a clear out and have quite a few children's clothes. Do any of you know if there are any organisations that collect clothes ( maybe toys ) and parcel them up and send them to Iraq ( or elsewhere )
I just feel that I cannot throw these things out - when someone else could benefit.

Thanks

I have always given my clothes to the Salvation Army ... they are excellent at making sure that stuff goes to the needy whether at home or abroad.

also you can try the red cross website or unicef

but don't give to oxfam - my mum used to work there and the old dears were always chucking perfectly decent stuff out - and in the bins, not even the fabric recycling box just round the corner from the shop

Ok I guess I can't tar every oxfam with the same brush but it does seem like they're just out to sell to the upmarket crowd sometimes.

Second the Sally army though - thy're great.
