Three cheers for the Oberbrunner family for this project! Extra kudos that it's spearheaded by a high school student. I'll be by with a clothing donation!

I know - they're lovely neighbors and supporters, and it is and was great working with Astrid.
Thanks for your support!

Are you looking for a specific type of clothing, or can you take anything? And is there a "too much?" I have LOTS of stuff to donate, but don't want to overburden anyone.

We take anything and everything - details are on the webpage about that.

There's no such thing as too much, but if you're really concerned about leaving it on a neighbor's doorstep, you can always drop off at one of our outdoor donation bins. They hold more than 1,500 pounds (about 125 garbage bags) of clothing. Locations and directions at www.secondchances.org (http://www.secondchances.org) .
