Clothing Donations
Catholic Charities Emergency Services accepts gently used clothing to be distributed free of charge to those in need. Due to storage limitations, we ask that you donate clothing just before the season in which it would be used. In other words, please donate winter clothes in the late fall, and spring clothes in the late winter.
