DESCRIPTION:Spring is here! There is no better time for some spring cleani
 ng! Decluttering your home of unwanted items\, thoroughly cleaning room to
  room\, wiping the dirt off every nook and cranny you can find – these a

 those in need.  San Diego Rescue Mission San Diego Rescue Mission accepts

  will be used. Most of their donations are given to students and guests at
  the San Diego Rescue Mission according to their needs. Father Joe’sFath
 er Joe’s accepts clothing and shoes that are clean and gently used and r
 esells them at their thrift stores. The money collected from reselling the

 ost items are sent to developing countries for people who are poverty stri
 cken and are in need of clothes.  Soles4SoulsSoles4Souls is a free mail-i

 ation. Some are sold to small shop owners or second-hand stores who are in
  need of products to make ends meet. Items that are battered\, such as fab
