The 5th annual First Impressions Clothing Drive was conducted in May and June to collect "gently used" and ready-to-wear clothing for men and women who are entering/reentering the workforce.  

More than 500 pieces of clothing were collected this year!

Thanks to Heather Thacker for transporting the donations to CAO and to Linda Brown, her son Channon, Roberta Milliken, Shannon Lawson, Deepa Sitaraman and Kayla Baker for their help in sorting, counting, loading, and unloading all the donations.

The Clothing Drive is held in cooperation with the First Impressions Clothes Closet on 433 Third St.  The Clothes Closet is associated with the Community Action Organizations and provides clothing, apparel, toiletries, and other services to income eligible residents of Scioto County for work related activities.
