💙 Thank You, Manhattan! 💙
We are so grateful for the overwhelming generosity shown to the USD 383 FIT Closet. We reopened donations today, and thanks to your incredible support, we are already completely full and will need to close donations again.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and truly appreciate your understanding. Your kindness continues to make a huge difference for our families, and we are thankful beyond words.

❄️ A Big Thank You, Manhattan! ❄️
We are truly overwhelmed by the generosity of our community. When the USD 383 FIT Closet asked for donations of coats and pants, you showed up big. Because of your incredible support, we are overflowing with items and need time to sort and prepare them for families.
We will be pausing all in-person clothing donations until January 5, 2025 so our volunteers can catch up.
If you would still like to support us during this pause, our Amazon Wish List remains open and is always up to date with our most needed items:

The USD 383 FIT Closet is in critical need of winter items. We are completely out of long pants for boys and men, and we are dangerously low on coats in all sizes.
If you’re able to help, we gratefully accept gently used donations—or you can purchase new items using our Amazon wish list here: https://a.co/45GJrDx
Thank you for supporting local students and families this winter!

Every pair makes a difference. Thank you for supporting local families through the FIT Closet!

💙 A Huge Thank You to Our Donors! 💙

We truly appreciate your help in making sure donations are received in the best condition possible so they can quickly go back out to families who need them. Thank you for partnering with us to make a difference!

We do need to share a couple of important reminders:

✨ Donations cannot be brought directly to the FIT Closet at 901 Poyntz Ave.

✨ All donations must go to the Keith Noll Maintenance Center at 2031 Casement Rd. Hours are Monday–Friday, 7 a.m.–4 p.m.

✨ Please do not leave bags outside the gates after hours. If items are left overnight or over the weekend, we unfortunately have to throw them away, as they are often wet or full of bugs by the time we get to them.

Thank you for being patient!! Starting again on Thursday, September 4th, donations can be brought to 2031 Casement Rd. They are open M-F from 7a-4p. Please remember that we cannot accept donations at the FIT Closet (901 Poyntz) due to space limitations.
