A number of TEXAID used clothes bins in the cantons of Glarus and St. Gallen raise money for the Samaritan associations in the Glarnerland. By selling used clothes, TEXAID generates funds which go to its six participating aid agencies, as well as to numerous regional organisations. These include the Samaritans of the Glarnerland, with 13 associations in the canton of Glarus and three in the canton of St. Gallen.

Among other things, the money raised is put towards the training of technical managers and the further education of members. This is very important for the Samaritans so that they can offer courses for the public in a professional manner and in line with the latest knowledge.
