Norfolk County free clothing closets and thrift stores.
Clothing closets in Norfolk County may be able to help very low income families or those households that are facing a disaster. Everyone else from the community can turn to a thrift store for low cost goods. Between the two of them they may have clothes for work or school, Christmas toys or gifts, free winter coats, and much more.
The two options work very similarly. Donations of clothes, furniture, presents for children, and other goods are collected by volunteers across Norfolk County. Then they are package and either sold (at a low price) or passed out to clients. Each center will have an application process in place in which they will determine what type of help, if anything, a family is qualified for.
Also, please note that c clothing closet is usually focused on a limited area while a thrift store may allow anyone from across the county to shop there. The primary locations are below.
