This chapter examines second-hand donations within American evangelical volunteer-tourism in the Dominican Republic, exposing how these practices may unintentionally reinforce global inequalities rather than alleviate them. By giving their second-hand items, volunteer-tourists try to address the economic needs of Dominicans, with whom they are enmeshed in preexisting global market relations. However, the donation of second-hand items frequently benefits the spiritual self-image of the donor more than the needs of the recipient. While many donations provide temporary relief, “donation dumping” wherein donations are often unwanted, ill-conceived, or damaged, also place financial burdens on recipients to dispose of, store, or use the goods. Moreover, imported second-hand goods can disrupt local economies by diminishing the need for products to be manufactured and sold locally, inadvertently driving Dominicans out of work and business. American evangelicals’ preference to give second-hand goods, rather than money, reflects colonialist ideologies, where Dominicans are perceived as incapable of managing financial resources. Additionally, Americans perceive donating second-hand goods as environmentally conscious, enabling them to morally justify their own overconsumption, often of items produced through exploited labor in the places they volunteer. Notwithstanding their ostensible aims, such practices of giving perpetuate rather than resolve the very issues volunteer-tourists aim to address.
