Does anyone know of a clothes drive in or near Crown Heights or Central Brooklyn?

I have tons of nearly new adult woman Med to Large winter clothes that I'm sure can be put to good use.

Any help appreciated.

    Although this first link is to a coat drive, I predict you won't be the first to donate "winter clothing, not just winter coats", and that they likely have someplace they donate the non-coats to.

    ...the only other places I can think of is the stand at the GAP weekend greenmarket.

    or Goodwill.

    I was about to suggest what homeowner said. They are really easy to donate to and are open more often than other places suggested.

    There are two clothing bins on the corner of Washington and St John's Place outside Ali's Laundromat, not sure which charity they belong to. There is also a clothing bin in the parking lot of Lowe's on 2nd Ave at 12th St.

    They are accepting clothing (women and mens), shoes, toys, tools, you name it. And you can schedule a pick up. They were in my area picking up just last month.

    Mount Lebanon Baptist Church, located at 230 Decatur Street on the corner of Lewis Avenue, between Lewis and Stuyvesant Avenues, has ministries to feed the needy and clothe persons who need clothes, especially men and women who need "business suitable" clothes for job interviews. The church phone number is (718) 493-8770. The church is NOT open between the hours of 5 to 6pm on weekdays.
