This year’s first clothing swap was held at the Land O’Lakes library, and was a major success! With heavier foot traffic and public awareness of the free clothing exchange, the club collected well over a thousand pieces of clothing. A majority of the items were donated to Sunrise of Pasco, our local domestic abuse shelter and resource center. Volunteers from a local Faith in Action team collected many of the men’s clothing items and blankets for the local homeless individuals in Pasco. And, one of our members collected several formal wear items that will be donated to the Cinderella and Prince Charming Project of Pasco.
Our efforts were reported in the Tampa Beacon Newspaper. Check It Out!
The next clothing swap will be held at the Land O’Lakes Library sometime in late spring. Follow our Facebook page for dates to come!
