Donating to The Costume Collective
Sustainability and access are the cornerstone values of our business.
We wish we could keep every amazing costume in circulation, but the realities of our limited physical storage space are just that: realities. We take donations on a case by case basis, and the best way to connect with us about making a donation of garments or fabric is to send an email to rentals@thecostumecollectivemn.com with information about the types and quantity of items you have to donate. Someone will get back to you.
An important note: The Costume Collective is not a non-profit, and there is no tax benefit applicable to your donation.
