Sack it to Goodwill

Today was the day that community groups collected the bags that were sent in the newspaper last week with the "Sack it to Goodwill" logo and a brief explanation on the front. This week, they were full of clothing and other household items given freely by local residents. Sack it to Goodwill is a program where residents give items to Goodwill by leaving bags full of items to be collected by community groups such as the boy scouts.

I was collecting bags with the Venturing crew this week. We were given an area of moderate size that had few houses, and most of the houses on our route did not have bags. However, the houses that did typically left more bags than the one that had been sent in the newspaper; so, by the time we were finished collecting, the back of the SUV we were riding in was full.
