Donating women’s clothes and accessories to Wings is an important way to support our organization. We appreciate and depend on the generosity of our community to keep our closets full.
Because of the nature of our organization, we need to adhere to standards that will allow the deserving women from our community to present themselves for interviews and employment at their best.
We are in need of quality clothing in current styles, both professional and business casual that are in new or like new condition, clean and free of any needed repairs. Due to our constant space challenges and limited volunteer resources, we keep this information updated as to our current needs.
Please note that the majority of our clients are between the ages of 22 and 35.
Even if you have donated in the past, please look over our donation standards and current needs.
Donation Standards
Clothing and accessories must:
have been purchased in the past 3 years
be in new or like new condition
be clean and odor-free
be free of any needed repairs
be for the current season or transitional seasons
be free from visible wear, inside and out for handbags and shoes
It is of great help to us for clothing to be on hangers or folded neatly in shopping bags that we can then re-use for our clients.Accessories and jewelry may also be placed in reusable shopping bags. Boxes, bins and large plastic trash bags present challenges for our volunteers and our space and we would appreciate your extra efforts in avoiding using them at drop-off.
Donation Needs
Our current, most needed items are:
Jewelry (any type)
Dark plain dressy jeans (boot or straight leg)
Leggings (new or like new) and tights (new)
Open front cardigan sweaters and sweater jackets
