RECLAIMED FOR GOOD
A Purpose for Every Bag
Giving, serving and supporting sustainability have been part of our company’s DNA from the beginning. Our Reclaimed for Good™ Foundation focuses on three key areas of purposeful investment: Product, Programs, and People. We partner with a multitude of local, national, and global charity organizations to find service opportunities and repurpose and distribute items to those in need.
Product
Maximizing the Use of Every Item
If an item is useful, we work hard to find a place where it can meet a real need. We deliver truckloads of donations that help underserved communities and promote sustainability.
Wheelchairs
Broken wheelchairs are delivered to prisons where they are repaired and then distributed to disabled children and adults in need by Wheels for the World, a mobility ministry of Joni and Friends.
Medical Supplies
Through partnerships with Samaritan's Purse and other organizations, millions of medical supplies make their way to communities where they're needed most all over the globe.
Clothing
Millions of dollars in clothing is donated to organizations both around the world and in our backyard. For example, we supply clothes for The Neighborhood Thrift Shop, an initiative developed by Second Mile to create employment opportunities in Huntsville.
Programs
We support programs that strengthen families and restore individuals and communities.

Love Luggage
When foster children move, they often have only trash bags to carry their belongings. We replace these bags with Love Luggage—hand-painted reclaimed suitcases.
