The Closet
Regional outreach ministry supplies clothes and hygiene items.
Why We Exist
The Mission of The Closet is to compassionately serve our neighbors who find themselves in need of basic provisions for daily life. The Closet is available by appointment for individuals and families looking for support. We have helped school social workers fill needs in our schools, Human Services social workers help families in need, and delivered Santa’s Closet items from our Closet. We have been able to facilitate furniture and beds to families, as well. Together, we can make a difference in our community and give children a brighter future.

Our Process
Choose a time that works for you to meet with Jill or a representative of The Closet. Consider what works best for you, a meeting that is just for you, you and a support person, or an experience for your family.
Step 1
Schedule
Make your way to St. Paul's Lutheran Church. The Closet is located inside of the south double doors. Jill or a team member will greet you, share space with you to build a relationship, and share what's on your heart.
Step 2
Meet
Once you have learned about The Close and shared some of your needs, it is time to shop. Everything is free. If you don't see something you need, Jill will find it for you.
