You've got bags of outgrown clothes and no elementary school to support—yet. ParentKind has a program built just for families like yours.
Bag up outgrown clothes and gear. We pick them up from your porch—or drop them at our drop point. No sorting, no folding.
When your donated items sell, a meaningful percentage goes into a personal escrow account tied to your family, accumulating until your child reaches kindergarten.
When your child starts kindergarten, we reach out. You choose which public elementary school receives everything that's built up. It's a meaningful way to arrive at your new school community.
ParentKind is on a mission to make neighborhood elementary schools meaningfully better funded—and we think pre-K families are one of the most powerful parts of that story.
Imagine what happens when dozens of families arrive at kindergarten not just excited and nervous, but carrying a lump of funding that's been quietly building for years. That's money that pays for amazing field trips, improves playgrounds, puts bicycle helmets on kids who need them, funds art and music programs, and fills the gaps that tight school budgets can't cover. Multiply that across a whole neighborhood of pre-K families and you start to see what a real groundswell looks like.
Every time one of your donated items sells, a meaningful percentage goes into a dedicated escrow account for your family. We never touch it. When your child reaches kindergarten, you tell us which public school to send it to, and we cut them a check.
It's not a future promise. It's money already working in the background.
We'll reach out when the time comes—you don't have to track anything or remember to follow up. Just donate now, and let it build.
Fill out the form below and we'll be in touch to confirm a pickup time. No need to sort or fold—just bag it up and leave it on your porch. Porch pickup is currently available within our SE Portland service area. If you're not sure whether you're in range, fill out the form and we'll let you know.
