We are a group of like minded individuals with a heart to serve the homeless and we are looking for donations of specific items that the homeless desperately need.
Think if you were homeless and everything you had in the world had to fit in the backpack on your back, what would you put in it? Here is a list of requests we receive on a regular basis.
We are looking for donations of new or gently used items such as: men's boxers Med. to 2X, backpacks, duffle bags, deodorant, trial size toothpaste, Jeans and casual washable pants sizes 36-38, tennis shoes and casual shoes, hooded sweat shirts size Large to 3X and Sleeping Bags. The homeless we serve would be very appreciative if you could help us by donating some of these items.
Thank you for considering us.

About Clothing the Homeless
Location:
c/o Journey Christian Church, 4849 Alton Parkway., Irvine, CA 92604, US
Mission Statement
Our goal is to meet the necessary needs of the homeless population with adequate clothing for the different seasons and elements of weather. We also want to provide decent, clean clothing to give these people a boost in their already low self esteem. This will help in scheduling and appearing at interviews if they look presentable. We believe with the amount of clothing that is thrown away every day there is no reason people are going without decent, basic clothing. Our goal is to distribute them to the people who are in need and not drop them off somewhere thinking it will get done.
Description
We have been going into the city of Santa Ana for over 12 years now, and have recently started distributing in the city of Costa Mesa too.
We give bags and bags of clothing to the Salvation Army Emergency Shelter and Isaiah House (a shelter for women.) Plus WHW an organization that gives people business attire clothing for job interviews and jobs.
We provide clothing when requested for Skid Row homeless and other areas in Southern Calif. We have provided clothing to many American Indian Reservations.
In between are mobile distributions we are busy collecting, sorting, washing, and marking sizes on each article. We store all of our donations in a storage facility.
