The Catalyst Foundation for Aids Awareness & Care, is run out of a thrift store in Sunland CA. They call up local residents, asking if they have any used items they wish to donate, the proceeds from the sales going to the Aids Awareness cause. They drop off a bag with a label on it, the resident leaves their used items inside, and the foundation sends out trucks to pick them up. They leave a receipt behind for tax purposes, as well. The thrift store itself is HUGE. I have shopped there on a regular basis, as well as donated. It's a great place, and the money goes for a great cause. :)
