Who is this for?
People who need clothes, shoes or hygiene supplies. Ask which ages, areas and needs the program serves.
How help usually works
Clothing closets offer donated items based on their stock and program rules. Some focus on work clothes, children or seasonal needs. Ask about sizes and how to collect items.
How to start
- Tell the program which clothes and sizes you need.
- Confirm its next open day, appointment or referral rules, and any visit limits.
- If you need clothes for an interview or after a disaster, explain that when you call.
What to bring
Ask whether you need ID, a referral or other documents. Bring a bag if you can. Tell the program if a listed requirement is difficult to meet.
If you need help soon
For clothes needed soon, ask about the next pickup or a referral to another program. For more options, call 211 where available.
