A lot of us have been finishing up our spring cleaning chores, both indoors and out. So, some may have good-condition clothes we want to donate but don’t know where to take them.

Well, the Gift of Life has 22 suggestions. That’s how many locations it has throughout District 7190 for clothing donation bins. There are several in the immediate Southern Rensselaer County Rotary Club area, but for those of you who live or work elsewhere, there are plenty of other options as well.

These bins are placed in conjunction with American Clothing Recycling Company, a Glens Falls business, with profits going to Gift of Life.

Here are the current clothing bin locations (note that the list changes from time to time):

In the SRC area:

• Community Care Physicians, 81 Miller Road, Castleton
