The Big Brothers Big Sisters Donation Center is a 501 c 3 not-for-profit corporation working in conjunction with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Kansas City. The Donation Center solicits used, re-saleable clothing and small household items from the community, which are then sold to our retail partner, Savers.


Funds from the sales of donations to Savers pay the cost of our call center and route trucks. Excess funds contribute to approximately one-third of our annual budget. The BBBS Donation Center serves most of the greater Kansas City area, including Johnson, Jackson, Platte, Wyandotte, and Clay counties.

If you would like to place or sponsor a bin, please contact Phil at 913.378.9448.
