“I love giving you guys the chance to get a whole new wardrobe for free, or for a small price. “Bring your pennies because there’s going to be lots of stuff and we want you to be able to take everything you’d like to take home. “Thank you to everyone who has brought stuff in and been down to help prepare, I really appreciate it!"
