Donate Today, Dress Someone Tomorrow.
Nine Lives has a two-part mission: to promote environmental sustainability and ensure everyone has access to clothing they both need and enjoy.
By keeping clothing in use and out of landfills, we reduce waste and extend the life of quality garments. At the same time, we make sure our community’s abundance is shared with those facing hardship, housing instability, or major life transitions.
We provide free clothing in three ways:
1. Walk-ins in need
Individuals who stop by unexpectedly and need immediate support.
2. Appointments or referrals
Most guests come through scheduled visits or with vouchers from our partner organizations.
3. Free shopping events
No-cost shopping events hosted in-store in collaboration with community-based organizations.
These programs support individuals in need of clothing for daily life, job interviews, new employment, and new beginnings. You can help us keep these programs sustainable, stocked, and full of dignity.
The Impact of Your Support
Your gift helps every guest feel welcomed, respected, and empowered through access to quality clothing.
