Fairchild TV – DDA and its Donation Bins (in Cantonese)

We’re really happy to announce that we were featured on Fairchild TV!

Our executive director, Alanna Hendren, along with some staff were interviewed on the issues non-profit organizations face with for-profit donation bin providers.

Have you ever wondered where exactly your clothing, housewares, books, and other donation items go after you drop it in a bin? Want to know how our donations are processed? What exactly are the operating and business-practice differences between non-profit and for-profit donation bins?

You can watch the first part below (it’s in Cantonese).

 

If you’d like to watch the second part of the documentary can be found here.

You can rest assured that when you donate to a DDA donation bin, you know it’s 100% non-profit owned and operated. Thanks to our loyal donors, the money we raise is put back into local programs in our community that help support people with developmental disabilities in need.

Keep a look out for these seals next time you’re donating!
