Items collected will be recycled, and funds raised will go toward church programs. Designed for contactless drop off, the clothing drive will be held from 8 a.m. to noon and is a “Pop the Trunk” parking lot event. The Church is located at 529 Eastern Ave. in Malden.

Through a combination of clothing drives, collection bins, thrift store partners and curbside pickups, HELPSY diverts 30 million pounds of textiles from landfills every year. HELPSY is dedicated to change the way people think about clothing recycling while adhering to the highest level of social and environmental performance, earning the company a Certified B Corporation designation … using business as a force of good.
