There is NO WAY anyone would "donate" or give away that sweatshirt. It's horrible! Ripped, ragged, looks dirty no matter how much you wash it, stained. I have never seen clothes like that at a Goodwill store or the like.

He doesn't want to get rid of things that should obviously go away, but when something of mine gets damaged due to his error, he doesn't understand what the big deal is. I picked up a wooden coffee table from the side of the road that had "free" on it. I refinished that twice and it was beautiful. When we moved, it ended up getting a huge gouge it in from another piece of furniture that he packed in the trailer. I was upset but all he could say is "What's the big deal? You picked it up on the side of the road, it's not like you paid $200 for it". Yet a few months later when I accidently shrunk his wool shirt in the dryer that he got from an ex-girlfriend's dad 15 years earlier, he could not stop going off on me about how I ruined it. It was from his ex girlfriend's dad's shirt (an ex girlfriend who he still talks about all the time) but it meant the world to him because her dad thought enough about him to give him one of his shirts! Apparently he could have sentimental value about that but I couldn't with my table that I refinished. He went off on me so much about it that I had to buy one that was nearly identical to make up for it. That cost me $100!
