We Help Cities & Towns Do More

At Epilepsy Foundation New England Donation Center, we strive to make lives easier:

For people and families impacted by epilepsy in our community, that means providing crucial resources and events that help them feel heard and supported.
For all of our neighbors across New England, that means offering a quick, hassle-free way to recycle clothing, shoes, accessories, and more—one that can be accomplished without stepping a foot off of your front curb!

That's why we're partnering with cities and towns in Massachusetts & New Hampshire: to make it easier than ever for residents to recycle their used items, keep textiles out of landfills, and continue our mission to fight epilepsy and seizure disorders.

Make Recycling Hassle-Free With Curbside Pickups

Through our donation pickup routes, we offer residents the opportunity to schedule contact-free curbside donations with us. Scheduling a pickup is easy:

When you're ready to recycle, residents can reserve a spot on our next pickup routes in your area.
Residents are asked to bag up their items and label each bag with "EF" (or tape on these printable tags).
On the scheduled pickup date, residents can leave donations curbside. From there, we help find recycled items a new home!

We're currently collecting all types of clothing and other attire, including:

Coats
Shoes
Jewelry
Hats
Scarves
Belts
Socks
Purses
Other fashion accessories

We also accept household items including kitchenware, household linens, small appliances, art, and more! Check out our complete list of acceptable (and non-acceptable) items here.

Give Back To Your Community With Every Donation

Did you know that 1 in 26 people will develop epilepsy in their lifetime? Epilepsy Foundation New England was founded to improve the lives of those individuals and families impacted by epilepsy—providing help for today and hope for tomorrow.

With us, your donations do more. Together, each pickup scheduled by residents will accomplish three important goals:

Giving back to your city/town with every pound of items donated
Supporting our mission to help people with epilepsy across New England
Recycling textiles and keeping usable items out of landfills

As part of our partnership, we'll also provide marketing materials to promote clothing donation pickups among your residents, including a dedicated landing page on our website with instructions (like this one we put together for one of our current partners, the Town of Hamilton).
