January comes with a mood to clean the closet, bookshelves, and the entire house for some. And now you have a pile of clothes you no longer wear, books you’ve read and re-read and even pieces of furniture that no longer fit your aesthetic. But this time, instead of discarding them, you can choose to donate them. If you are on board, here are a few NGOs who would be happy to take them off your hands and put the stuff to good use.


ReCircle


Left with scrap such as  newspapers, metal, plastic bottles, etc? They can be donated too. ReCircle not only recycles them, but also uses the proceeds from it to help people in need.

They organise monthly collection camps throughout Mumbai, and accept drop offs at their centres in Dahisar, Kalyan and Worli.

Green Yatra

If this drive ends up with you staring at old electronic items such as mobile phones, laptop, washing machine or a microwave, which can neither be repaired or passed on to someone else, recycling them is perhaps the way to go. Green Yatra will pick up your goods, sort them, repair if possible or recycle them.
