Slip out of your bra and hand it over to the Carolina Waterfowl Rescue organization in Charlotte, North Carolina. The organization says that the clips on them can be used to help knit together the shells of injured turtles. Keenan Freitas, a representative of the organization, explained to WLBT News:
The wire that holds the broken portions of shell together is fastened to the turtle with these things that usually might lock together lingerie.
“You basically wire the shell back together,” Freitas says.
It’s affordable for this nonprofit – and sustainable.
“You can recycle something that would go into a landfill,” Freitas says. “And I mean, they’re helping a turtle. Who wouldn’t want to help a turtle?”
Freitas says when it’s time to release the reptiles back into the wild, they wear the glue down a little, the clasps pop right off, and they’re good as new.

Seems like you should send just the ends, or just the hooks and eyes, instead of a whole bra.
