Sorting Event – February 23, 2019 / Distribution-Shopping Event – March 3, 2019
Want to get involved? Each stage of our work – collecting, sorting, and distributing clothing – is crucial for the success of our organization, as well as a huge source of personal satisfaction for our volunteers. We are always looking for:
Dedicated mother and teen daughter teams who want to help make a difference in the lives of local young women in need.
Teenage boys and young men who would like to assist with loading and unloading bins and display racks, and provide security during distribution events.
Whether you’re looking for a one-time volunteer opportunity or an ongoing commitment to community service, here are some of the ways you can get involved with My Girlfriend’s Closet:
