Donating Gift Wrap and Bows?

I have unopened quantity of Christmas gift wrap and bows I would like to donate to a charity. Will Toys for Tots take them? Any other ideas? How would I do this?

I see this on Freecycle all the time. There is always someone who wants it.

Since you would like to donate to a charity you could consider donating to Hospice thrift stores or Habitat for Humanity and I feel sure there are several charity shops that would love to have these items.

Toys for Tots also accepts wrap and bows and give to parents to take home and use.
You can check Google for charity shops (your zip code) and also Toys for Tots locations on Google and your zip code.

Sometimes churches also use these as they usually have presents to wrap for their children's Christmas party. Call any of their offices to see if they would like them.

Durning the holidays there are many Boy Scout or even Girl Scout troops that will set up holiday wrapping tables to help people out. They are always in need of these supplies. I think the Red Cross also does things like this and you can check with them.

Also check with your local police and fire departments in your area. I know they normally collect toys and go around on Christmase Eve delivering them to families in need. They could also use this paper and bows.

Check in your area at local churches and outreach,women/children shelters and HUD. Donating in your surrounding community helps!

Toys for Tots would probably love to have it just call.The Salvation Army would take it to.

You have such a kind heart! What a nice gesture!

Our Toys for Tots takes them.

So does our local school district for their wrapping booth.

All of the local churches take them also for their Secret Santa for needy children drives. You drop off an unwrapped gift, they triage and wrap in donated paper.

Blessings to you and your family!

Hi, I don't know where you live? But here in MA we have a store called SAVERS, you donate any and all things, ex...Clothing, household, furniture, and any gift items. They would take something like gift wrap, bows, and ribbon, package them in sets and sell them at a terrically low price! If you want it to go to a better cause, then you might want to try, "Goodwill Stores" and "Salvation Army Stores." Or if you want this to go to people "FREE", then donate your things to a church.

That is what I would do. If someone does not have money to buy wrapping paper, then they should get it free! Your very good natured!
