Declutter for a Cause 2014
Last year O and Peter Walsh challenged you to get rid of it for good, offering to help one lucky reader throw a town-wide yard sale to benefit a cause of her choice. This year, we're issuing our challenge again!

Thank you so much for your interest. The 2014 Declutter for a Cause entry period has ended. We'll announce the winner shortly.
In the meantime, here's what happened during our inaugural Declutter for a Cause:
From among hundreds of worthy proposals, we selected a yard sale organized by Kristi Bates of Westford, Massachusetts, who wanted to honor her late 10-month-old nephew, Aidan (he died in a drowning accident in 2012), by refurbishing a local playground. Bates's inspiring event—featured in the November issue of O—pulled in more than $16,000; the playground opened last fall.
