They serve approximately 50 clothing appointments per day (M-F) which is 250 full sets of clothing per week to their guests in need. Please note that 85% of St Francis House guests are men, so men’s items are in most need.  Women’s items are also accepted but CHILDREN’S ITEMS ARE NOT ACCEPTED.  All items must be clean, in good condition, and (at most) gently used. In particular, NEW socks are welcome for their Foot Clinic. Please box or bag everything – no clothing on hangers, please!
