Right as you enter the large stretch of Meridian lined with retail outlets and restaurants, WeCare’s facility can be found in a quiet business park off the main road. Here, shoppers can fill a bag with whatever clothing or home items they may need for only $5. This long-time partner of Labels is a 501c(3) non-profit that runs almost entirely on the hard work of volunteers. After collecting donations from Labels, WeCare sorts items by category and displays them on clothing racks and shelves to be bought. Any clothing overflow from WeCare’s facility gets passed to Ragfinery, in order to elongate the life cycle of donated garments and reduce the overall textile industry waste.
You can visit WeCare’s facility at 3550 Meridian Street, Suite 2, or follow them on Facebook for updates!
