IMPORTANT REMINDER: Quality Over Quantity! The Clothing Center is committed to meeting the needs of Portland Public School youth by providing good quality, in style clothing that encourages positive self-esteem, academic success, and regular class attendance. Items must be freshly washed, folded neatly, and ready to wear. No stains, tears, missing buttons, or broken zippers.
Please be selective in choosing items to donate as we want to be sure the new owners feel comfortable in their clothing and cared for by the community.
