TAMPA, Fla — Clothes to Kids is a non-profit helping families in Hillsborough and Pinellas counties by providing new or gently used clothing to those in need.
After hurricanes Helene and Milton, Clothes to Kids saw an urgent need in our communities. Families had lost so much, and kids were heading back to school.
"We've been busy the last couple of weeks," explains Jennifer Jacobs with Clothes to Kids.
In many cases, clothes weren't salvageable. So, Clothes to Kids stepped in to provide a weeks worth of clothes, including shoes and undergarments.
"We need clothes from size 4T to 4XL," says Jacobs. "We want the kids to be able to come in and pick what they like."
Clothes to Kids urgently needs shoes in larger sizes and volunteers.

When will the water go away?
Two weeks after Milton, many Pasco County residents are questioning if rapid development has played a role in unprecedented flooding.
