TAMPA BAY FOSTER CLOSETS AND THRIFT STORES

Note: always check to be sure a foster closet is open before driving there. Many have limited operational days and hours because they are often volunteer organizations. These are a great resource for foster families or CarePortal responders as they offer free, but gently used items like clothing, high chairs, cribs, beds, etc. 

Please plan on returning good quality clothes to a foster closet after use. Good quality adult clothes are often accepted by foster closets that serve teenagers.
