Have you seen these blue boxes around town and wondered what they were? Well, here's the information you've been looking for!!!
The Alachua Habitat for Humanity ReStore partners with Suncoast Textile Recycling to turn clothing and shoes into funds that we put directly into our mission of bringing people together to build homes, communities, and hope.
Suncoast Textile Recycling brokers with partners world-wide (in places such as West Africa, Haiti, Honduras, and Mexico) to provide the much needed clothing and shoes to help victims of natural disasters and their homeless/disadvantaged populations.
Blue donation boxes are conveniently located throughout Gainesville. Check out our map to find one near you!
Not only do your donations to the Blue Donation Boxes help you clean out your closets, but they help people around the world in times of crisis, divert waste from our local landfill, and help Alachua Habitat partner with more families to create decent, affordable housing here in Alachua County!!!
