Okay, I'm home and brought back a bunch of new clothes (yep, I admit it, I 'consumered'--hey! just made up a word!!--while in the US) and have stuff here in Riyadh that I rarely wear.

In the USA, I would give things I don't need to charitable organizations (like the Salvation Army or Goodwill) for resale.

Anything like this in Riyadh? If not, any suggestions?

there are few organizations for such things ,, they will accept clothes donations ..

one of the organizations is for orphans ,, its called Ensan
the web site does not support english for sorry, but in case u need some help, i can try to translate the office locations they have and u could drop the clothes at which is closest to u ..

Some of the larger Mosques in town do have collection bixes for old clothes. WAMY also takes old clothes.
