I asked about this. Below are the replies I received:The KHS PTSA is paid by how many pounds of clothing is collected. Phill the Box is partnered with Texas Thrift stores where the clothes are sold, and sorted out. Once everything is sorted the clothes that are not sold are shipped to other countries. Clothing that is damaged is shipped to an area where they are processed and recycled into household products.ACCEPTABLE COLLECTION ITEMS
All items should be clean and placed in plastic bags.
Clothing Apparel and Shoes - We accept Womens, Mens, Children and Baby clothing.
