Clothing
One of the most compelling elements of Samaritan Inns' Recovery Continuum is the empowerment of our residents to reclaim their positions in the workforce. Most clients, after spending months or years on the street, do not have the professional work attire necessary for job interviews and work. All of the following are greatly appreciated:
Gently used or new:
- Men's and women's dress pants
- Men's and women's dress shirts
- Ties
- Men's and women's dress shoes
- Women's dress skirts
- Nylons
- Men's and women's blazers
- Men's and women's suits
- Men's and women's dress coats
- Women's underwear: new panties and bras
- Men's underwear: new boxers, briefs, undershirts
We also appreciate gently used or new men's and women's casual wear as well.
- Men's and women's rain slickers
- Men's and women's winter coats/jackets
