The NonProfit Center and Friends
November and Spring 2009 Clothing Drives for Second Chances

Thank you to all who participated!

The NonProfit Center's winter and spring clothing drives were terrific. Tenants and friends donated 720 pounds of clothing, shoes and accessories in November and December and 431 pounds in April, which will help people in need in our community and support a local nonprofit.

We are so grateful to The NonProfit Center for hosting seven clothing drives for Second Chances since 2006, and to Jackie Cefola for enthusiastically initiating, coordinating and marketing these events!

Second Chances recycles all plastic bags and paper packaging from these drives as well, thanks to the City of Cambridge's Recycling Program.

Other ways you can help
Second Chances is entering its sixth year of operation and our needs are still immense. Right now, our biggest obstacle is funding - while we can operate on a small scale with volunteer labor and donated space and materials, we need to raise the funds to staff our program and become fully operational. Second Chances can benefit from financial contributions to support and expand our programs and operations. Financial contributions are 100% tax-deductible. Click here for more information »
