Clothing Families
with Hope &
Opportunity

We donate clothing inventory by the box and by the pallet to families in need โ€” specifically low-income, single-parent households and families raising children with special needs. Caregiving shouldn't mean choosing between your child and your livelihood.

Resellers Launched

Born from Experience,
Driven by Heart

The Giving Pallet was founded by two clothing liquidators who know the industry inside and out โ€” Lucy Li and Susan Kattamuri. Both women entered reverse logistics in 2023 and within three years built thriving businesses of their own. Along the way, they saw an opportunity to turn that success into something bigger: a way to hand other families the same tools that changed their lives.

Their two paths led to the same idea: donate clothing inventory directly to families and teach them how to resell it โ€” creating flexible, work-from-home income that bends to their life, not the other way around.

Lucy Li
Co-Founder ยท Chicago, Illinois
Lucy is the owner of Lucy's Liquidation, based in Chicago, Illinois. Lucy's core operation is built on direct third-party logistics and retailer relationships. As a primary contract holder to several fashion brands, Lucy has deep ties across the supply chain โ€” bringing the infrastructure and sourcing power that makes The Giving Pallet possible. Lucy built her business on relationships, and The Giving Pallet is her way of extending that same spirit of generosity to families who are ready to build something of their own.
"Success means more when you bring someone else with you."
Susan Kattamuri
Co-Founder ยท Los Angeles, California
Susan is the owner of SGV Deals, based in Los Angeles, California. She is raising three children with autism, each with different challenges โ€” one of whom will require one-on-one support for life. She saw firsthand how impossible it is to hold a traditional 9-to-5 when autism means constantly juggling medical appointments, school needs, sensory emergencies, and therapy. Susan started reselling on Facebook Marketplace in 2019 on her own schedule, and in 2023 entered the liquidation industry with her first truckload purchase. What started as a few listings grew into pallets, then full truckloads. Having built something from nothing while raising three children with autism, Susan knows exactly what's possible when a family gets the right opportunity at the right time โ€” and she's determined to be that opportunity for someone else.
"Living is giving."
