My Project

This project is designed to create a clothing closet in our school building that will help any students in need. We will collect clothing and shoe donations year round and kids can sign up to visit the Colts' Closet to shop. We will have student and family members volunteer to sort and wash clothing then set it up in the room. We need some clothing storage to start this closet then we can start to collect clothing and shoe donations. The donations requested will help us start with shelving, bins to organize, and clothing racks to start our closet.
