he benefits of donating clothing and other goods to local thrift stores include promoting recycling, meaning fewer items wind up in a landfill; decluttering, which can create a calmer and more organized environment at home; and supporting local community programs, since many of the volunteer-run shops use sale proceeds to help others in need. Locally, several organizations are looking for donations of quality used merchandise, including Righteous Clothing Thrift Store, 317 Main St., Parkesburg. “Housewares and knick-knacks are something that we have the least amount of. That’s what everybody likes to buy,’’ said Nicole Starner, who is the store’s lead volunteer along with Mae Taylor. Donations of new or gently used items in good condition are accepted during store hours on Tuesdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Thursdays from 1 to 5 p.m., Fridays from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. For more information, visit www.facebook.com/Righteous Clothingthriftstore. Those who would like set up an appointment to donate clothing may send a message on the Facebook page. Proceeds from the store, which is a ministry of Parkesburg United
