Directions Website Contact the organization

The Caring Closet We serve students of the Tigard-Tualatin School District with the goal of keeping students in school. We accept new and gently used shoes for kids and teens.

Donate your new or gently used clothing, suitable for students in grades K-12. We also accept new and gently used sheets, towels and blankets. We only accept new socks, underwear, and hygiene products. Donations are accepted 7 days a week from 8am-5pm at our donation shed. Our shed is located in the parking lot of the Tigard Grange on Hwy 99 at 13770 SW Pacific Hwy. We are in a secure building, so appointments are required to drop off items at the Caring Closet located on the campus of Templeton Elementary behind the Tigard Tualatin School District Training Center. Volunteers are always welcome! Do you work with a youth group that needs a service project? We can always use the help of individuals, families or groups for special projects, sorting and hanging items, or working with families.

We served 2000 students this school year, and our inventory is wiped out.  Please look through your closets and donate any kids clothing you are not using. We take size 3T up to 4X. We asked that the clothing be free of holes and stains, clean, and appropriate for school age children, or on trend with what teens are wearing.

We accept jeans, sweatpants, hoodies, shirts, shorts, athletic attire for PE, jackets, pajamas, seasonal clothing items for holidays, shoes, sandals, hats and gloves, new like swimsuits, holiday dresses, and dress clothes for little kids and teens.  We ask that any socks or underwear donated be brand new.

Our donation shed will be closed June 12 to June 28 while volunteers are on vacation. Please drop your clothing items off at our shed before then or please hold onto them and donate when the shed reopens. The donation shed is unlocked from 8 AM to 4 PM seven days a week. It’s located behind the Tigard Grange at 13770 SW Pacific Hwy. Thank you for your help.
