Clothing
Clients come to us from a variety of situations. Often, they have only one or two sets of clothing which are typically in poor condition. Most of our clients need comfortable and loose clothing to allow wounds to breathe or fit over a cast. We have patients of all shapes and sizes, unfortunately the clothing supply we have is not as diverse and we are always in short supply of plus-size clothing. Men's clothing is also highly desirable as men make up about 80% of our clients.
