Free Store accepts only clothing donations

Non-clothing donations cost the host church a considerable amount of money in dump fees

The Free Store has helped feed and clothe the poor for over 20 years.

It’s thrived due to the tireless efforts of its volunteers and the wonderful generosity of a community who cares.

However, over the past few years there has been an increasing number of “donations” of non-clothing items, most recently skis. These donations cost the host church a considerable amount of money in dump fees.

By sharing this, I’m hoping to remind everyone only clean useable clothes should be left outside the church.

Thank you.

Kevin Chisholm,
