Providing a shopping experience in a store-like setting has always been one of the most important parts of our mission, but in light of the COVID-19 crisis we have created CTKF Curbside. This will minimize person-to-person contact while still connecting kids in need with clothing. The safety of our clients and volunteers is of utmost importance, therefore the CTKF Store will remain closed for client shopping until it is safe to re-open.

Parents and caregivers now have the opportunity to request a wardrobe for each eligible student. Clothing will be thoughtfully selected and packaged for curbside pick-up. The CTKF Wardrobe is a full week’s worth of school clothing.

COVID-19 has forced all of us to adjust to a new normal. Here at CTKF we’ve transitioned to pre-orders for clothing and curbside pickup on Saturdays. Contact our Appointment Coordinator to arrange for a curbside pickup. Please include the family name and phone number in your message.

Please be prepared to share the following information about each eligible student:

• First name, last name, date of birth, school, and grade.
• Sizes for clothing, shoes, socks, and underwear.
• Specific needs and special requests.

By determining the specific needs and tastes of the students using our curbside service we hope that they can be just as selective as they would be if they were shopping in person!

If you are new to Clothes To Kids of Fairfield County, please review how our program works.

With concerns regarding the coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak, and in efforts to keep our volunteers and shoppers safe, the Clothes To Kids of Fairfield County Store will be closed until further notice. All scheduled volunteer projects, shopping appointments, and service days have been cancelled, and will be rescheduled for a later date.

We are aware that families rely on us to provide clothing, especially at this critical time. When CTKF reopens, we anticipate a tremendous need for clothing. We want to provide the new and gently used items that children are going to urgently need. If you have new or gently used clothing to donate, please call the store at (203) 595-5664, and a volunteer will reach out to assist you in making arrangements for pick up.

The volunteers at CTKF wish for all of you to stay healthy and safe during this time. Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to keeping in touch with all of you.

Be well and wash your hands!
