Neighborhood Clothing Drive
March 6th, 2021
Making sure our neighbors have access to clean clothing.
Picture
We believe that having proper clothing is foundational and cost should not be a barrier. Whether it is being prepared for Minnesota’s changing seasons, adjusting to a growing family or boosting pride and confidence, having proper clothing is fundamental. To support this belief, LHENA is running a new clothing drive!

How to Make a Donation
GUIDELINES
All donated clothing must be washed and then donated in a labeled bag.

REQUESTED ITEMS
  • ALL AGES: unworn socks and underwear, slippers, bathrobes, pjs, snow boots, sneakers
  • BABY/KIDS: newborn to 9 months, 2T to 4T BOYS, 5T and larger
  • WOMENS: all sizes t-shirts, long sleeve shirts, sweaters, hoodies, jeans/casual pants, leggings, sweatpants, snow pants
  • MENS: all sizes jeans/casual pants, sweatpants, snow pants, non-dressy shirts, sweaters, hoodies
  • MATERNITY: size large and up

MAKING YOUR DONATION
There are two ways to make your donation: dropping off or scheduling a pick-up.

​DROP OFF INFORMATION (Preferred method)
  • Drop off your donation on March 6th, 2021 between 10:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.
  • At ArcStone, located at 2836 Lyndale Ave S #132, Minneapolis, MN 55408

SCHEDULE A PICK UP
  • Email Charlie at region2@thewedge.org to schedule a pick up from a neighborhood volunteer.
  • Pick up times will be offered between 10:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. on March 6th, 2021

​How to Help Out with this Project
To make this a success, we are still looking for a few volunteers to fill delivery and receiving roles. If you are interested, sign up here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/9040a44a4aa22a0fe3-lhena
  • Delivery: Pick up 1 to 3 donations in our neighborhood and deliver to ArcStone on March 6th, 2021. This role would require either a vehicle or, if on foot, multiple people to ensure enough hands to carry deliveries safely to Arcstone.
  • Collection: Help with receiving donations at ArcStone on March 6th, 2021. There will be two shift options: 10:15 a.m to 12:00 p.m. or 12:00 to 1:45 p.m.

How to Shop (for free!)
These donations will be going to South Minneapolis Free Clothing (SMFC). At SMFC, you can shop for a variety of clothes, for free, with no questions asked. Visit their website at https://www.southmplsfreeclothing.com to learn more and schedule an appointment.
