About this Opportunity
About Catie's Closet: Catie's Closet provides an in-school resource for students who are homeless or living in poverty. Access to clothing and basic necessities are important in order to feel valued, build self-esteem, and allows our students to better focus on their education.
Volunteers will sort and prepare clothing and basic necessity donations for distribution into Catie's in-school closets. This includes separating donations by classification and hanging, folding, or sorting as needed.
