Vision House Needs Gently Used Boys’ Clothing


vision-house

Our resident “store,” where Vision House families shop for free, is in need of gently-used little boy’s clothing. We currently have enough in adults and little girls, but little boys seem to be tougher on their clothes so our supply is pretty low. For more information, please visit Vision House online or on Facebook.

Based in Renton, Vision House is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that provides housing and supportive services to homeless families to promote their efforts in regaining self sufficiency.
