Why Do Items Have High Prices in the Salvation Army When It Is Supposed to Help the Needy?
Question by ladybug: Why do items have high prices in the Salvation Army when it is supposed to help the needy?
I have several bags to donate but not sure if I should just put them on the freecycle site instead of taking them to the Salvation Army. The last time I went to donate things at the store, I seen the price on some of the stuff and I thought it was high for used stuff. I thought they were supposed to help the needy.
Now I’m debating if I should just put my stuff on the freecycle site versus taking it to the Salvation Army.

Our Salvation Army has programs for customers in extreme poverty where every 6 months they can come in and pick out several outfits, socks, underwear, one coat shoes, etc. for free. Also the money they generate from the sales is used to fund their other programs. Places like Goodwill seem to have high prices too but they are also providing jobs and job training for special needs people.
