Clothing donations

​​​​​​​​​​

Everything on our racks came from clothing donations from community members like you and sorted by volunteers! Thank you for thinking of us and supporting our mission.

​

How it works​

​

Bring your donations to the shop any time during our open hours, and intake is just inside the door to your left. We will (optionally) take your name, weigh the donation, and offer you a blank donation receipt for your taxes.

​​

What do you take?

​​​

Basically anything wearable!

​​

• Gently used & clean junior and adult sized clothing in all sizes and genders

• Accessories: scarves, hats, bags, jewelry, ties, etc

• Clean and new or like-new socks and undergarments

• Clean shoes in great condition

​​​

We love all donations but we get really excited about:

​​​​

• Fashionable clothes in bigger sizes, XL+

• Binders and other gender affirming undergarments and equipment in good condition

• Unique, trendy, alternative, queer fashion in all sizes

​​

Shop supplies we can always use:

​​

• Reusable, paper, and plastic shopping bags with handles

• Light-colored masking tape

• Sharpies/low odor permanent markers

• KN95 masks

• Cotton washcloths

​​​​

What DON'T you take?

​​​​

• Kids clothing

• Non-clothing items like home goods and linens

​​

We <3 kids and we <3 stuff, but we don't have capacity to take these in, unfortunately!

​​

What happens to the excess?​​

​​

Anything we cannot fit onto our racks at the store goes through our monthly $1 rummage sale, and/or gets donated to other local resources such as:

​​​​

• Community Free Store

• Kenton Clothing Exchange

• Hygiene4All

• Rahab's Sisters

• New Avenues for Youth

• Rose Haven

• SMYRC

• Bethanie's Room

• IPRC

​​​

And other free resources including free swap events. This list often changes with the season and we are always looking for more places to redistribute. If you know an org that could use some help, let us know! If you work or volunteer with an org, stop by and help us lighten our load!

​​​​

Thank you so much for all the support and doing your part to keep good clothing accessible & out of landfill!
