Default Clothes that no longer fit?

Hi everyone!
I was wondering what you all were planning to do with the clothes that no longer fit you...

I have some great athletic clothing that I spent a lot of money on but no longer fit....I don't want to toss them. Places like the salvation army are not in my area but I would like to donate to an organization that serves women in some capacity - healthy lifestyles, professional clothing, etc. Does anyone have suggestions? I'd be willing to mail the nicer ones.

I've sold a lot of my clothes on ebay and at Plato's Closet. The rest I give to a local charity.

I plan on taking some of my clothes to Buffalo Exchange and doing just that, exchanging them for smaller sized clothes. Others I plan to donate. Thanks for the link to Dress for Success. I have a lot of professional clothing that I can get rid of there too.
