Clothing Bank
The Fort Wayne Community Schools Clothing Bank provides clothing to thousands of students each year. FWCS students receive clothes, shoes, coats, toiletries and other items as needed because of poverty or homelessness or following a disaster, such as a flood or fire. Students are referred to the clothing bank by a case manager or counselor at their school.
The clothing bank is staffed from 8 am - 2 pm Monday through Friday.
Appointments required with referral from school case manager or counselor.
The Clothing Bank is located at:
1511 Catalpa St. Door #26
Fort Wayne, IN 46802
