Collection Guidelines & Instructions

New Pajamas Only

We accept only new pajamas with tags attached. This ensures every child receives sleepwear that is fresh, clean, and given with dignity. For health and safety reasons, gently used items cannot be accepted.

All Ages & Sizes

From toddlers to teens to young adults, we welcome pajamas in sizes 5T through Adult XXL. Every size makes a difference and helps us meet the unique needs of our community.

Clothes hanging to dry on a clothesline, including a dark green shirt with light green collar, beige pants with white stripes, a dark green sweater with yellow stars, and a light blue polka dot skirt.

All Styles Welcome

Whether playful cartoon prints, classic stripes, seasonal patterns, or simple solids—every style of pajama brings comfort and joy to a child who needs it.

Purchase a Collection Bin

If your drive requires a collection bin, Pajama Jams provides them for $25 each. Once purchased, the bin is yours to keep for future pajama drives.

After registering, we’ll provide details on where and when to pick up your bin and where to drop off your pajamas after the drive.

During Your Drive

Place Your Bin in a High-Traffic Area

Place your bin in a visible, high-traffic spot (lobby, school office, church foyer, etc.)

Spread the Word

Invite employees, families, and your community to donate.

Share on Social

Share your event on social media and tag @donatepajamas on Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook so we can celebrate your efforts.

After Your Drive

  1. Pajamas can be delivered in reusable totes, shopping bags, or large trash bags to our Count & Sort location (details will be provided closer to your drive’s end date).

  2. If possible, remove hangers and rubber-band the tops and bottoms together so the sets stay matched.

  3. Attach a note with your organization’s name and the final pajama count.
