Catholic Social Services are active in many local communities. Contact your local diocese or look in the yellow pages for their information.
These are just a few of the ways you can help to fulfill this work of mercy. Don't throw out those clothes..give them away.
Please visit your local pregnancy center and woman's shelter to see if they will take donations of gently used baby clothing and business attire for women trying to re-enter the workforce.
