If you’re cleaning out your closet, this is a great time to make a real difference 💛

Right now, our kids clothing bins at HopesCloset are empty.

If you have gently used clothing, especially kids and youth sizes, we would be so grateful for your donation. Every item helps ensure a child has something to wear, something that fits, and something that helps them feel confident.

If you’re ready to donate or have questions, please reach out to:
Pati West, HopesCloset Coordinator

Let’s fill the bins 💛
