A Simple And Sustainable Way To Fundraise

Traditional fundraisers often require upfront costs, lots of planning, and endless follow-up. With Bags for Bucks, there’s no need to sell anything, manage orders, or chase down payments. Instead, your supporters can contribute just by cleaning out their closets.

Here’s how it works: We send you free donation bags. You hand them out to families, friends, and community members. They fill the bags with gently used clothing and small household items. You drop off the full bags at a participating America’s Thrift Store, and your organization earns money for each one.

It’s efficient, no-cost fundraising that anyone can participate in.

Built For Mobile’s Community Organizations

Mobile has a rich tradition of community involvement and local pride, from Mardi Gras parades to neighborhood festivals. Bags for Bucks fits right in with that spirit, offering a feel-good way to support causes without asking for cash.

Perfect for:

  • School programs and booster clubs
  • Church ministries and outreach events
  • Nonprofits, youth services, and local charities
  • Scouts, athletic teams, and fine arts programs
  • Family support networks and after-school initiatives

Whether you’re raising money for field trips, uniforms, equipment, or mission work, this program offers flexibility and proven results.

Here’s how it works:

More Than Just A Fundraiser

When your group participates in Bags for Bucks, you contribute to a greater cause. Every item donated is either resold affordably in our stores or responsibly recycled. Proceeds go to partner charities that support addiction recovery, healthcare initiatives, and workforce development.
