Clothing Closet
The Community Closet is a clothing "pantry," offering a selection of in-season clothes and shoes and for all ages throughout the year. Winter outerwear (coats, hats, gloves, etc.) is available through our distribution event in the fall.
Families in the Pantry's service area can shop for ten items of clothing, one pair of underwear, and one pair of socks per family member each month. ​
Where & When to Shop
The Closet is temporarily located inside the North Liberty First United Methodist Church across the parking lot from the Pantry until we move into our new building on June 23, 2025.
​
The Community Closet is open for shopping on Tuesdays and Thursdays only, from 9:30 am to 12:00 pm and 3:30 pm to 5:30 pm.
To access the closet for shopping, please use the entrance on the west side of the church building. There are signs posted in the ground to direct you to the entrance. If you are looking to drop off donations, please continue to bring those to the Food Pantry Warehouse doors.
