Clothing Closet

Many kids come into foster care with only the clothes on their backs.

We know that it can be hard for foster parents to get clothing, diapers, and baby gear when kids come into their home. Sometimes reimbursement checks and clothing vouchers are delayed or don’t arrive, and sometimes seasonal clothing is out of stock in stores. Our clothing closet in Newark is meant to help foster parents through the transition by providing kids’ clothing from NB to 5T, diapers, wipes, baby gear, backpacks, and toys.

Our clothing closet at St. John’s United Church of Christ is open by appointment only. Please email us at info@fosteringfurther.org to set up a time.

John’s is located at 285 W. National Drive in Newark. (Enter through the office doors.)
