Put your unwanted clothes to good use.
Drop-off between 4th - 18th September 2023.

THIS APPEAL IS NOW CLOSED. PLEASE VISIT AGAIN TO FIND OUT DETAILS OF OUR NEXT APPEAL IN FEBRUARY 2024

Al'hamdu'lillah. Comfort at Home is one of the most popular ways our supporters help those in need. It helps us share our good quality, but unwanted, or unused clothes and shoes with those who really need it.

By re-using and re-distributing the items that we no longer need or use in our own homes, Muslim Futures helps needy families to benefit from your donations-in-kind, maintaining dignity and honour. We don’t believe in landfill, and we DO NOT sell your items on.

We are NOW ACCEPTING DONATIONS of :

1.

Good quality, undamaged, CLEAN, LAUNDERED clothes and shoes for men, women and children, including toddlers.

2.

Winter wear, boots and warm outer garments including coats, hats, scarfs and shawls in good clean condition.

3.

Traditional and culturally appropriate stitched clothing for day-to-day use, including burqa's, niqab's and shalwar kameez garments.

Please READ our Terms below, before donating.
Insha'Allah, our campaigns can only continue with your help!

Please offer a monetary donation to cover the costs of transport, logistics and onward distribution to the recipients. It costs Muslim Futures £1.50 per kg to send 1 kg of donations. Please do offer what you can afford to help us with these costs. Our voluntary donation request is £1 for each kg of items that you donate.

DEADLINE : 5pm on Monday 18th September.
We CANNOT accept any donations after this time.

General Terms and Conditions.

There are many things we can accept when taking your kind donations. And a few that we can't. Please Contact Us to find out more if the below points need clarifying;

Season-Specific Terms and Conditions.

  • We do not take any unstitched cloth, fabric, sheets, bedding or similar soft furnishings or household items.

  • Dresses, shoes and accessories may only be accepted based on cultural norms of the intended distribution location.
  • Small haircare items, make-up compacts, costume jewellery, hand-bags and accessories may be accepted if in good condition.
  • All items must be suitable and appropriate for the intended distribution country, for the coming season.
