    I am a public school teacher and was doing some de-cluttering. I have about 10 bags of women's clothing, sizes 10-18 and some shoes-- sizes 9 and 10 for give away. Due to the Coronavirus, thrift shops aren't taking donations. Could you all use these items?

    I used to work in an office and now only wear scrubs. I have office wear clothing that I would like to donate to a place to would get the most use from them. Tops, skirts, slacks, sweaters, and dresses. Sizes 8 - 10 and some 12. Please let me know if you are accepting donations at this time. If not, could you inform me of another organization that could use these items. Thank you in advance for your time and help.

    This program is not what you think it is. It is a program hosted by religious zeolots who verbally abuse, divide, and rob you of any privacy or sense of self. It is not uncommon to wake up greeted by emails and texts, of verbal assaults, false accusations, and threats. Their mentors curse at you in a church. Mostly every woman packs their things and leaves this program with no where else to go because sleeping in your car, brings your more peace than staying here for a second. There are video cameras every where including the private hallways, you are shouted at when you are having a conversation that they don't like. They are demeaning, disrespectful, they tell you you are not human, and you have no family, it is an attempted cult like tactic, I do not recommend this place for any woman of color or ethnicity other than Caucasian, you will never feel safe, or secure here, you will leave because you have had it. Stay in a homeless shelter, you will be given more compassion, and more respect.
