Where to Donate and Recycle Your Used Goods in Shanghai[沪上捐赠回收点]

It’s that time of year again to spring clean and rid your family of the hoards of unnecessary objects taking over your home. But the question is what to do with it all? Instead of throwing your junk away (or holding that yard sale you would do back in your home country), you can recycle and donate it back to communities in need. Here, we give you a list of organizations that will happily take your unwanted items. So get into the spirit of spring cleaning and rearrange or sweep up everything, and feel the rejuvenation that comes with the season, and do so responsibly. 

Mom to Mom Sale

Founded in 2008 by two moms, this non-profit group now sells thousands of kuai’s worth of used children’s items. They have six sales per year, and the next one is coming up in late April and registration opens on April 11. (It’s also a great place to shop for kids, although if you’re spring cleaning, it might not be the best idea.) Fifteen percent of proceeds are donated to the Heart to Heart, a community outreach organization that provides support for children undergoing heart surgery. They only accept 50 vendors for each sale, and the registration fee is RMB200. Go to their website for specific information regarding the items they accept, how to submit your items, and more.

   Heart to Heart Shanghai

You could also go directly to the aforementioned charity, Heart to Heart, to donate your unwanted items. They welcome new and used clothing for adult and children, as well as books, blankets and toys. Protein-rich baby formula, baby lotions and grooming products are also extremely important as this charity works primarily with underprivileged families. All donations are handled by email [e-mail]

又是一年开春，可以开始进行大扫除，整理出囤积了许久的杂物了。那么，问题来了，整理出来以后怎么办？你可以把他们当垃圾处理了（或是拿去小区义卖，而最终这些义卖品可能又运回你的国家），还可以把这些物品回收利用，捐赠给需要他们的社区。再次，小编为大家整理出一些可以捐赠的机构和地点，希望能给各位的“春季扫除”带来一些动力！

Mom to Mom Sale

这个非盈利机构是由两位妈妈在2008年组织成立的，现在已经发展到义卖上千元儿童用品的规模。他们每年有六场义卖会，最近的一场将在4月底，参加者可在当月11号开始报名（这也是为孩子们购物的好机会！但话说回来，毕竟你也是要进行大清理的人，再去购物显然不太明智）。义卖所得的15%将捐赠给Heart to Heart慈善机构，用以帮助需要进行心脏手术的儿童。每场义卖摊位最多50个名额，报名费用为200元。详情可以登录他们的官网（下方）进行深入了解。

或者，你可以直接把你的物品捐赠到上文提到的Heart to Heart慈善机构。他们接受成人及儿童的新旧衣物、书籍、毯子及玩具等。富含蛋白质的婴幼儿配方，婴幼儿乳液及清洁用品对于他们救助的贫困家庭来说，更为重要。如需咨询和申请，请邮件至[e-mail]。

 上海远大心胸医院, 龙漕路218号, 近凯旋南路 (http://www.heart2heartshanghai.net/)   纤维计划

这个由环保组织“绿色倡议”发起的环保意识倡导项目建议大家不要随手丢弃旧衣物和其他纺织物品，这样很有可能导致他们被丢进垃圾填埋场或是焚烧掉。The Fiber Project在浦西和浦东分别设有10个回收点（下方提供官方网址，可登录查看详情）。
