Teen Closet:
How can they help me?
Teen Closet is a youth driven initiative that started with the intent to fill in the age and style gap that current clothing banks have. This event distributes all different types/size/brands of clothes, most of them appropiate for youth. They also provide baby, maternity and adult clothing when available. Shoes are limited in most of the events.

Who are they?
Teen Closet is a clothing bank program operated by Bellevue Youth Link, in partnership with Plato's Closet and the World Impact Network.
