Our Program

While other major charity organizations require you to schedule your donation pickup weeks in advance, and some of them have stopped offering pickup services all together, Pickup Please can pick up your donation within 24 hours in many areas.

Your generous donations and charitable contributions of clothing, household goods, books, shoes, small appliances, electronics, and more make a big difference in the lives of America’s Veterans and their families.

The Vietnam Veterans of America sells your donated items to private companies by annual bid which generates the majority of the funding to support the local, state, and national programs of the Vietnam Veterans of America. Your donations make it all possible so we thank you for your support.
