In the first five weeks of the school year, Clothes for Kids has served an incredible 1,256 children - a record number for the organization, and 25% ahead of last year’s total.
With many families feeling the pinch of challenging economic times, this trend is expected to continue, which would bring the need to over 4,000 wardrobes this school year. Clothes for Kids is in desperate need of financial and in-kind donations. Financial assistance is needed to provide new underwear, socks, shoes, and other urgent needs. In-kind donations of new and gently used children’s clothing are greatly needed. As you can see from the attached photos, the shelves at Clothes for Kids are bare for the first time in years.
