The closet is currently open 2 mornings a week. Monday and Tuesday. We are hoping we can get a volunteer, once trained, to open a third day, preferably Thursdays. The closet is located at the Methodist church 2 blocks from the Center in Englewood.
The closet is set up as an opportunity for the women who access services, to “shop” for season appropriate clothing including, outerwear, shoes, purses, and belts. All items available at the Closet are donated.
The volunteers support the shopping experience by asking what the individual is shopping for and directing them to sizes and styles. Offering an opportunity to try things on and provide positive uplifting feedback on what they have chosen.
Items are then “Bagged” before the women leave with their choices.
In essence the volunteers provide a shopping experience the same as if they were actually shopping at a, (high end) retailer.
If you speak Spanish that is a plus! But not required.
