Bethel Boutique
Help Us Distribute Clothes to Those in Need in Our Community
Our Bethel Boutique is our clothes closet that we operate for families of the Bethel-Danebo School District, through referrals from school counselors. We provide new and quality used clothing, with new shoes, socks, and underwear for all sizes (both male and female).
We have greatly improved the experience for our “shoppers” and volunteers. We have more fashionable clothing and more and more volunteers to assist our shoppers and organize the donated apparel. Call the church office if you’d like to volunteer. You’ll love the new experience we’re providing for the kids that come through! This is a great ministry!
Bethel Boutique Update and Volunteer Needs For 2025-26
We have been serving the Bethel community for over 30 years! Help us keep that going.
Needs include:
HELPERS at clothing appointments made by parents -2 volunteers at each appointment help guide clothing selections. Usually 2 afternoons a week, between 3-6 pm, as many parents bring their children to help choose appropriate items that fit properly.
DONATION sorters and hangers – on your own time, keep items stored and hung neatly in correct size and sections of the Boutique. Stock donated items also. Flexible time commitment.
SHOPPERS on your own time, help keep items in stock. Shop Goodwill/St.Vinnies for good used items, or sales at local stores or online for basic items like jeans, sweatpants, short and long-sleeved shirts, and underwear in sizes 4T – 3XL. We have reimbursement money in our budget if you’d like to work with our coordinator for certain items. Flexible time commitment.
A reminder-
We DO NOT NEED any socks. Bombas donates 3,000 pairs yearly to supply our needs fully. We no longer supply pajamas, dresses, “dress” shoes, or items for adults.
How to Donate Clothes
If you have been wondering how you go about donating to the clothes closet, kindly follow these three steps to make our volunteers’ jobs as easy as possible:
1 All donations must be in good condition and freshly washed. A good rule of thumb is to ask yourself “Is my donation something that a child or teen would wear to school?” The Clothes Closet serves children from kindergarten through high school. If possible, donate only “in-season” clothing due to our storage limitations.
- No torn, stained clothing or broken zippers
- No used undergarments (underwear, bras, etc.)
- No bathing suits
- We are NO longer accepting used shoes
2 Package items in small to medium sized trash bags so our volunteers can easily lift them. Close bags to avoid spilling.
3 Place donations downstairs in the bin outside of the Clothes Closet. We are located in the church’s lower-level. The church is open weekdays from 9:00am – 3:00pm and Sunday morning the doors are always open!
