Clothe the Poor

Clothe the Poor

Donated clothing meets our residents' needs first.

When we receive donations of clothes, we first make sure the needs of our residents are met. Surplus items go to our Thrift Store, where they are either given away through our voucher programs or sold to the public. As a 100% nonprofit, every dollar made at the Thrift Store goes directly back to the Mission and helping the homeless.

Whoever has two tunics is to share with him who has none, and whoever has food is to do likewise. Luke 3:11

Donation information

Drop off Monday to Saturday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Pull up to the big red door at the Thrift Store, 215 W 6th Street, and ring the doorbell. A member of our staff or a volunteer will come out to help you unload and give you a tax-deductible donation receipt.

If you have 10 or more boxes or bags of clothing, you can schedule a free pickup online. We also accept small household items with pickups, such as coffee makers, air fryers, toaster ovens, dishes, pots and pans, bakeware, home décor, lamps, picture frames, and radios. Pickups can take 1–2 weeks depending on donation volume.

We are not accepting furniture donations at this time. Questions? Call Angela, Director of Clothing Ministry, at 712-224-5605.
