Gemach-Giving</span></u></b><span style='font-variant:small-caps'>:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>1) Don&#8217;t feel bad to throw out clothing your family has worn
and gotten good use from. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>IT'S NOT A WASTE to throw it out if it's:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>stained,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>bleach-spotted,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>torn,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>worn out,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>stretched out,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>washed out,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>stiff from repeated laundering,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>pilled or<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>out-of-style.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>But IT IS a waste of the gemach-owner's time and energy when
you send these items.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>2) Gemach clothing is cheap and very plentiful. Therefore,
customers can afford to be picky. No one will buy &amp; fix:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>broken zippers,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>torn shoes,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>ripped clothes,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>squashed hats,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>pants in great condition but with a hole in the knee (no one
will patch these&#8212;chuck them!)<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>3) No one wants used tzitzis or ripped sefarim. This is an
extra bother as the gemach-owner must now save these items and shlep them to a
geniza.&nbsp;Please don&#8217;t pass this job on to someone else!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>4) It's strange but true that many, many people send used,
worn (and not so clean!) socks and underwear! Not a must-have item!!!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>5) If dishes, pots and other housewares are not clearly
marked as milk or meat, they can't be used. No one will bother kashering them.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>6) Shoes must be new or almost new. We get so many dirty or
overly worn out pairs. These are very heavy for gemach owners to shlep to the
garbage. Do it yourself in the privacy of your own home!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>7) White shirts must be spotless. Oil stains don&#8217;t come out.
Shirts with over-ironed, lumpy or ripped collars &amp; cuffs are not in great
demand.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>8)
PLEASE, don't send clothes &amp; fitted sheets with elastic so old that it
