We are in need of adults who can come to our storage facility in Irvine currently on Friday afternoon and help sort and organize clothing for the homeless.
We get donations from thrift stores and private indiviuals and need to sort through the donations and keep what is appropriate and pass on what is not.
We then catorgize the clothing by sex and type of garment. We mark the sizes on the outside with pre-made labels. This makes it easier for distribution purposes.
This procedure takes place from 2:30 to 5.This does require doing some standing and bending and sitting.

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.
