Clothing Drives in Orlando & Central Florida

We run drives with schools, churches, communities, apartment complexes and businesses across the Orlando area. You gather the donations — we handle the flyers, the logistics and the pickup. Proceeds support Pet Alliance’s animal welfare work in Central Florida.

Schools

Class-versus-class donation competitions across the Orlando area, with a prize for the winning class.

How it works

  • We run the clothing drive inside your school and provide flyers and messaging for families.
  • Each class competes to collect the most donations.
  • The class with the most donations receives a prize.
  • Donations are stored on campus during the drive — a gym, cafeteria stage, storage room or spare classroom works well.
  • Our team handles collection and pickup so staff time stays minimal.

Communities & HOAs

Doorstep collection across your neighborhood on a date your board chooses.

How it works

  • We work with your HOA or community team to set the drive date(s).
  • The HOA sends an email blast, and we provide flyers for residents.
  • On the scheduled date and time, residents leave donations outside their front door.
  • Our team drives the community and collects everything — quarterly, semi-annually, or annually.

Apartment Complexes

One designated collection spot on your property. Residents donate there, and we pick everything up directly — usually at the end of a 3-week drive period, or sooner if the space fills up.

How it works

  • Your property picks one convenient designated collection location.
  • Residents bring donations to that location throughout the drive.
  • We pick up everything from that single spot, typically at the end of a 3-week collection window.
  • If donations fill the space sooner, we can schedule an earlier pickup — no hauling or storage headaches for your team.
  • Great as a recurring resident-engagement event.

Churches & Faith Groups

A congregation-wide drive with a collection point, then a scheduled truck pickup.

How it works

  • We help promote the drive to your congregation with flyers and messaging.
  • Members bring donations to a collection point on your campus.
  • Bags are stored inside during the drive — a fellowship hall, classroom or storage closet is perfect.
  • When the drive ends, our truck comes to you.

Businesses

An easy workplace giving campaign your team can rally around.

How it works

  • Run a drive across your office, warehouse, or storefront.
  • Set aside an indoor spot to hold the bags — a break room corner, supply closet or warehouse bay.
  • Once the drive is complete, we send our truck to pick up from your location.
  • A simple, measurable sustainability and community-impact win for your team.
