The Special Collection for November is for Teen and Kid Closet. Teen and Kid Closet is a local nonprofit that supports children and youths in foster care. After a referral from a school counselor or a social worker, these deserving young people are invited to a dignified shopping experience at a storefront on East Sprague. They can get new and nearly-new clothing, shoes, and accessories — especially significant because many of these kids get nothing but a garbage sack of hand-me-downs when they arrive in a new living situation.

UUCS members have partnered with Teen and Kid Closet since September 2025 by volunteering in the storefront. Teen and Kid Closet also welcomes youth volunteers accompanied by an adult. Your monetary donations help – and you can also embrace our first principle by volunteering!  If you’re interested in volunteering, contact RE Director Stephanie Gronholz at re@uuspokane.org.

If this ministry speaks to you we invite you to give generously.

If you’d like to contribute to this special collection, you may do so when it is announced during services on the third Sunday of the month, by mailing a check to the church (4340 West Whistalks Way, Spokane, WA 99224) or by donating online at the church website. Be sure to note in the memo section that your contribution is for this month’s special collection.

Take me to the online donation page.

Thanks again for your kindness and generosity!
