Then we bring all of these donations out once a month and hold Open Hours, where anyone and everyone can come take what they can use. We ask a free-will donation of $5 for those who are able to, which goes directly to support our use of the space, cleaning, and utilities. Clothing is available first-come-first served, and we ask that if you can, you bring your own bags.
