Community
An act of generosity can go a long way in impacting your community positively. When kids (and even adults!) see you practicing Altruism, they are inspired to also be charitable, growing and strengthening communities.
Additionally, when you help the House of Good Deeds help others, you may motivate others to do the same. One simple act of generosity can lead to an Altruism chain - people helping people helping people - which makes a better world for all of us.
So, the next time you plan to revamp your wardrobe or upgrade your kitchen, or write a check or volunteer your time, think of the difference you could make in your community and the world by donating to the House of Good Deeds.

Sustainability
Whether or not your clothes are organic or sustainably made, throwing them in the trash is still harmful to the planet. Pretty much anything that goes to the garbage ends up in a landfill. Given that landfills don’t have enough oxygen to break down the organic materials, clothes end up decomposing anaerobically, which emits greenhouse gases that are harmful to the environment.
All these can be avoided by donating rather than discarding your useful items.
