A NEIGHBORHOOD Clothing Drive offers an opportunity to promote community engagement, contribute to a more sustainable environment, and support youth mentoring statewide. By gathering donations of clothing, linens, and shoes, we can make a BIG impact. The process is simple: all you need are some amazing neighbors, a driveway or front lawn to host the drive, and a dry, safe place to store the donations if the drive extends beyond a day.
