Do you have gently used or new winter clothing?
Each year, Black and poor people in our community face freezing temperatures without the clothing they need to stay safe and warm. We’re stepping up to make sure no one in our community is left out in the cold.
The Defender’s Free Clothing Program is collecting Winter Clothing — coats, hoodies, socks (new), blankets & more — to help prepare for the harsh winter ahead. This is about survival, but it’s also about love, joy, and showing up for one another. Let’s do this together!
📍 Drop off your donations this weekend at Willa’s Bookstore:
When: Saturday, 1 PM – 5 PM
Where: 5549 Troost Ave.
ABOUT THE PROGRAM & WHY NOW ❤️
Each year, Black and poor people face life-threatening risks due to freezing weather. In one of the richest countries in the world, people die simply because they lack a coat or warm socks. We refuse to let that happen in our community.
Black and poor people, especially children, often lack the necessary clothing to maintain good health.
Our Free Clothing Program is a means where people unable to buy decent clothing or lacking funds to buy good quality, stylish clothing can outfit themselves at absolutely no expense.
Most importantly, this program exist to share love and resources with our Black community members, as we grow our Mutual Aid network.
We look forward to seeing you there! Please DM us if you have any questions.
