Cathy's Closet

A welcoming place for everyday support.

Cathy's Closet turns giving into support: clothing, household essentials, and food offered with no application and no qualifying.

Host a Drop-Off Site

Community Store

Free help, without making people prove they need it.

A free pop-up store. Anyone can come. There is no application, no income check, and nothing to sign up for.

Guests shop for clothing and jackets, and every household takes home a box with food, household items, and mental health resources. All items are available while supplies last.
