Help Us Refresh the Community Closet for Fall

Be part of something meaningful! Join us as we transition the Community Closet for the cooler months, ensuring our neighbors have access to warm, seasonal clothing—free of charge.

Date: 08/25/2025

Time: 02:00 PM to 05:00 PM

Location: United Way of Marathon County Community Closet - 705 S. 24th Ave, Suite 440, Wausau, WI 54403

What You'll Do:

• Pack away summer styles to make room for cozy fall and winter essentials.
• Restock racks with warm layers and weather-appropriate clothing.
• Assist with light organizing and cleaning to create a welcoming shopping space.

Why It Matters:

This is more than sorting clothes—it’s about making a real impact. By providing free clothing, the Community Closet helps families whose budgets are stretched thin, allowing them to put their hard-earned dollars toward essentials like rent, groceries, and childcare. You'll leave knowing you played a role in easing financial stress for families in our community while ensuring they have access to warm, dignified clothing.

Who Can Volunteer?

Individuals, families, and groups are welcome! Volunteers must be 18 or older; volunteers between 12 and 18 may volunteer alongside a parent or guardian.
