Are you up for a challenge? Get your business involved with a Clothing Drive Challenge! 

Join Big Brothers Big Sisters of Utah to help Utah kids by donating used clothes, books, tools, toys, and more.

• Choose one week to pledge to hold a company-wide clothing drive.
• Help your employees get excited by offering great incentives such as dress-down days,
  ice cream socials, or extra breaks during the day.
• Post signs throughout the office and send corporate wide emails alerting employees of the dates, rules, list of acceptable items (provided bt Big Brothers Big Sisters of Utah) and incentives. Be sure to send reminders as the day approaches.
• Schedule our 6' x 10' trailer to be set up in one parking place at your company for that chosen week or designate a day when you'll collect items and we'll come pick them up.

*weeks may fill up quickly.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Utah receives approximately 14% of its operating funds from our household recycling program. We sell your unwanted cloth and household items to Savers stores along the Wasatch Front. Savers is owned and operated by Savers, Inc.

Please call us at 801-747-1050 if you are placing the items somewhere other than curbside so that we don't miss picking them up. We cannot pick up large items on our neighborhood routes, but these can be donated directly at one of our Attended Donation Stations 7 days a week at 1875 East Murray-Holladay Road in Holladay or 1605 West 12600 South in Riverton. Our driver will leave a donation receipt when items are picked up from your home.
