Its basic concept is simple: we collect reusable items, which students would otherwise dispose of as they move out, and then sell the collected items at our Annual Garage Sale in late August. This project reduces litter and consumer waste, saves space in landfills, lowers dumping costs for certified housing units, provides inexpensive items for students to purchase in the fall, and acts as a great fundraiser for the University YMCA, Champaign County's oldest charity.</span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><span> </span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">We do NOT collect:</span> stoves, washers, dryers, non-working electronics and computer parts, sleeper sofas, mattresses, and large exercise equipment. The Habitat for Humanity store downtown Champaign may be able to take your donations of stoves, washers, dryers, sleeper sofas, and exercise equipment.</em></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><em> </em></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">We collect:</span> We will only accept clothing that is in nearly-new condition.

If you think an item may not be in good enough condition to be resold, give it to us anyway.
