Jiangsu Honghui Old Clothes Are Too Expensive To Send To The West.

Jiangsu red will be called old

Pile up like a mountain hand

Freight is expensive and difficult to reach West.

According to the Central People's broadcasting station, the cold winter is coming, and many poor people in the western poverty-stricken areas are eagerly looking forward to it.

Yesterday, reporters from Jiangsu province only accept clothing donation official agency — — Jiangsu red will disaster relief center learned that, at present, the donations of old clothes have been piled up, washing and disinfection of clothing to pport to the west, but expensive freight is a problem.

According to Li Yuning, Secretary General of Jiangsu red Council,

About 100 thousand pieces.

In order to be able to send clean and tidy old clothes to the people in need, since 2007, the Red Cross Society of Jiangsu has purchased washing equipment such as washing machines, drying machines, ironing machines and so on. A washing center has been set up to clean, disinfect, ironing and package the old clothes donated by society according to the requirements and standards.

But washing capacity is far behind the growth rate of donation.

"Now we wash clothes at a rate of about 20 thousand pieces a year, which is quite uncoordinated.

It's enough for us to clean for five or six years. "

Li Yuning said.

Li Yuning said, "roughly calculated, the cost of each garment is 1 kilograms and 6 yuan, and 5-6 yuan for a coat.

Transportation costs to a foreign country in the year range from hundreds of thousands of yuan.

According to the regulations, the freight shall be borne by the receiving party. However, due to the high pportation cost, many regions are unable to bear the freight, and the final freight will be borne by the provincial Red Council.

We hope that the people who are in love can lend a helping hand and donate the freight. They can indicate that they are used to deliver the old clothes in the donation letter. We will use the funds strictly in accordance with the wishes of the donors, and provide timely feedback information for the funds to be used, or pport companies and other units can send out some vehicles for some people.
