Did you know that bras are almost NEVER donated to clothing banks and donation centres, but almost all women prefer to wear them? That's why it is important that we collect as many bras as possible: so we can find a good fit for every female! At Why Not Youth Centres, we do our best to meet the needs of the young people we serve. For over a decade, we have been mentoring at-risk and street youth,
providing them with food and clothing, and connecting them to the existing services they need. BRAugust is our way of ensuring that we actually have bras to give to the young women we serve! We hope to collect 300 bras for our centre. If Brantford can collect more, we will start giving them out to other organizations in Brantford that serve at-risk women, including:
Welcome In Centre (formerly Out of the Cold)
The Kindness Centre
Nova Vita
New and Used bras will be accepted. If you're not sure if a bra is "too" used, donate it anyway! We would rather give you the opportunity to donate than make it complicated. We are also accepting new underwear donations. Drop off locations are:
