The DHS Leadership class is running the Gear for Grads closet, where we have formal dresses and suits for our graduating Grade 12 and Grade 8 students who may not be able to afford their own. If you have any formal dresses, suits, dress shoes, or clothing racks that can get a second life, we would love to have them!
We particularly are looking for more suits in any size (jackets, pants, and dress shirts) and longer dresses in size 0-4 (xxs-s) and 10+ (L and up) any additional clothing racks you might have laying around could be a big help as our inventory is ever growing.
Donations can be dropped off in the main office during regular school hours (Monday-Friday, 8:30 AM-3:10 PM). If that’s not possible, we can make other arrangements. Please reach out if you have any questions!!
