Brief summary, my husband and I are dedicating 25 days to lesson giving with our children.
Today we chose My Sister's Closet. The kids help me go through my career clothing, dress pants, shirts and more. While they weren't giving of their own items, I reinforced the idea of everyone sharing and giving.
Sister's Closet is a program of the YWCA.
Go here to learn more about it and visit their shop open during the week 11 a.m. to 2 p.m:
How Can You Help or Donate:
My Sister’s closet is supervised by YW staff but depends on volunteers to help sort and label donations and to work in the shop when it is open for customers. Volunteers must be 16 or older. This activity is well suited for individuals or for groups of volunteers. Schedules are flexible. The YWCA accepts tax-deductible donations. All donations can be dropped off at the YWCA 309 23rd Street North Birmingham, AL 35203. If after hours, please ring the bell for assistance! Please do NOT drop off items at the store!
