Your used clothing, shoes and accessories can make a difference in another person's life -- please consider donating what you no longer need to Second Chances.

Place your clothing, shoes and accessories in a plastic garbage bag (no hangers, please). We can use just about anything that is still wearable - children's, women's and men's sizes; contemporary or vintage; casual, work and dress styles; clothing, shoes and accessories. We can even make good use of household linens like towels, sheets, tablecloths and cloth napkins. Anything our clients cannot use is either recycled or sold wholesale to support our operations.

Wednesday, September 22nd from 5 to 7 p.m. at Somerville Community Growing Center - Details »
