ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY AND VOLUNTEER RECOGNITION HELD TUESDAY APRIL 15, 6-7 PM AT CROWN POINT

The Closet needs shopping bags and has an urgent need for small boys and girls clothing for spring and summer if you have gently used, in good condition, clothing to donate. The Closet has recently started to work with DMACC's Urban Campus Iowa New Choices program and the Family Violence Center. They are looking for adult clothing appropriate for job interviews. The Closet at Crown Point will accept clothing that would fit that purpose also. If you or your group would like to volunteer a couple hours sorting or folding clothing please call 270-9579. Stop in to visit.


 
DONATIONS

The Johnston community has been extremely generous in donating clean, gently used, in-season clothing items. The greatest need at this time is for donations of the following:

  • little boy clothing
  • little girl clothing
  • baby clothing and supplies
  • disposable diapers
  • laundry detergent
  • Dish soap
  • Shampoo & Conditioner
  • Paper products (paper towels, toilet paper, napkins)
Items donated that are not used at The Closet are passed on to other community resources, such as local emergency shelters.

  VOLUNTEERS

The Closet at Crown Point needs volunteers to sort & fold clothing, schedule volunteers, & prepare clothing for The Closet.

Hours to sort and fold clothes or to stock shelves are flexible according to the size of the group volunteering.

For information on how to become a volunteer, or for any other questions, please call 986-2007.

The Closet is located on the lower level of Crown Point Community Center, 6300 Pioneer Parkway, next to Terra Park in Johnston.


 


COMMUNITY COLLABORATION


A joint venture of The Johnston Partnership for a Healthy Community, Inc. and the Johnston Rotary. The City of Johnston has supported this project and has allowed The Closet to use its space at Crown Point. The purpose of the The Closet is to provide a place for lower income individuals and families within our community to obtain much needed clothing, shoes, and sundry items (i.e. laundry detergent, paper products, toiletries). A fee of $2.00 for each family's visit to pick up items is used to purchase needed sundries. A family can volunteer hours at The Closet in lieu of the fee.
