Volunteer with Clothes To Kids, Inc.<\/p>\n

Clothes To Kids, Inc. was founded in 2002 by two Clearwater childhood friends who had a passion for helping children in need. They wanted to offer a cheerful environment where families and children could shop for and receive school clothing free of charge.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

They first opened a store in Dunedin in 2003 and then moved to a larger space in Clearwater in 2005. Their second store opened in St. Petersburg in 2009 and a Tampa store opened in 2018.<\/p>\n

Volunteers are needed in St. Petersburg and Clearwater to assist shoppers and support in-store operations, and help pick up donations and deliver Clothes To Go orders.<\/p>\n
