Clothes To Kids of Fairfield County

Clothes To Kids of Fairfield County, Inc. (CTKF)  envisions a community in which every school aged child has quality clothing so that they may attend school with the confidence and self-esteem needed to achieve academic success.  CTKF provides free new and gently used clothing to low-income and in-crisis kids, ages Kindergarten – 12th Grade, in Fairfield County, CT. Our unique organizational structure allows every eligible child to “shop” for their clothing. Each child receives a one hour appointment and a personal shopper to help them peruse the clothing racks and select items that they would like to try on.  We envision a community in which every child has quality clothing so that they may attend school with the confidence and self-esteem needed to achieve academic success

Poverty ravages the individual and family system. Join our cause and help lessen the stress by minimizing the dollars needed for clothing but more importantly, providing a normalizing shopping experience and clothing that children can enjoy and feel good wearing.

LIVFREE

Our mission at LIVFREE is to provide a child and their family that are battling pediatric cancer and its treatments, with an experience or event of their choosing, giving them a break from treatment to spend fun family time together.

 

The founders of this organization were on the front lines of pediatric cancer when their daughter was diagnosed with Leukemia in 2015. It is with this experience that LIVFREE was created.  As parents of a child who fought cancer, we know how important family time is. Please know that with your help we can truly make a difference for a family that is experiencing a very difficult time. Help us meet our next goal! All donations will have a huge impact, not only for the kids fighting cancer, but their parents and siblings as well.
