Second Chances Turns 5
Celebrate with us! We are as happy as a five-year-old for what we have collectively accomplished since 2005. Thank you for all that you have done to help us reach this day. Please help Second Chances celebrate five years of providing free clothing for people in need in our community and support our dream of serving even more people during our sixth year:
- Donate clothing »
- Support our work »
- Sponsor a clothing drive »
- Host one of our donation bins »
- Volunteer your time »
Happy Spring
I couldn’t be happier that spring is finally here! This winter, clothing donations to Second Chances were lower than in past winters, so there was less clothing and a narrower selection of apparel for the people we serve. I hope that spring will motivate more people to clean out their closets and drawers and donate to Second Chances, so that we will have more clothing and a better selection of apparel for our clients, as they begin along the path to positive outcomes and success in their own lives. This spring you can donate clothing at one of our public clothing drives or at our clothing donation bins. Details »

We are especially grateful to Wonder Bar, Virgin HealthMiles, Curran and Berger LLP, Triumvirate Environmental and several local friends and families for holding clothing drives and fundraising events for Second Chances this winter, and we are thankful to our many partners, including those who held clothing drives, coin drives and fundraising events for us last year.
