Afternoon Clothing Bank

The Issaquah Food and Clothing Bank (IFCB) serves approximately 400 households each week by providing food, clothing and other essential goods thanks to the team of caring and committed volunteers who come in each day to make it happen.

Our Clothing Bank helps families meet other essential needs by providing clothing, home goods, bedding, cleaning products, toiletries, personal care items and diapers. Families with children also have the opportunity to place orders through Eastside Baby Corner which is a great resource for infant and children’s clothes, baby gear, toys for all ages, and provides for children up to age 12.

The clothing bank also provides camping gear for people who self-identify as being homeless and, depending on donations, can offer tents, sleeping bags and pads, tarps and warm clothing to help protect people from the elements.
