Clothing Donations

We accept clothing donations on Mondays from 1pm and 5pm & Fridays from 9am-12pm. Please limit any donations of clothing to the following items:

  • T-shirts

  • Jeans

  • Pants

  • Shorts

  • Sweatpants

  • Sweatshirts

  • Jackets

  • Sneakers/tennis shoes

For hygiene purposes, we ask that underwear and socks be donated new rather than used items. We do not have the space to accommodate items outside of basic everyday-wear clothing items listed above. We also ask for items to be in clean condition when donated, as we do not have the means to launder clothing donations. Thank you!!!

A special thank you to our sponsors. Without their support, our work would not be possible.

“We, as a community, cannot sit by and watch our people suffer. We have to take care of each other, and that’s what this center is all about.”
