Pop-Up Closet: Clothing for All
The Pop-Up Closet provides free clothing to individuals and families facing financial challenges. We understand that many families, especially those with children, struggle to meet everyday needs. Whether it’s for work, school, or daily life, our goal is to ensure no one goes without the basics. Access to clean, appropriate clothing is essential for dignity and opportunity, and we’re proud to support our community.
Why It Matters:
Growing Needs: Children outgrow clothes quickly, making it hard for parents to keep up, especially on tight budgets.
Work and School Ready: Proper clothing can make a difference for job interviews or school success.
Supporting All Families: From single parents to homeowners struggling with rising costs, we serve a broad range of families in King County.
