Our Closet in Your Neighborhood is a mobile basic needs program. We go into undersourced neighborhoods across Philadelphia and distribute much needed resources like clothing, food and more through what we call "Pop-Up Shops" . Our pop-up shops are a "one stop shop" where people can take what they need free of charge, this includes mostly clothing and food but we also offer other wraparound services at our pop-up shops. We need volunteers to assist our team with distributing the clothing and food and help our guests/shoppers make selections, man the tables and more. This is a very rewarding opportunity to help serve folks in need. Our events are held on Thursdays and the occasional Wednesday. This is a 3 hour time commitment and the timing is usually 10am-1:30pm.
