Hi T. ~
I work for a day service that helps adults with developmental disabilities. It is called "Heartstrings Community Foundation". You can read about our services on our web-site : www.heartstringscf.org
We have a thrift store, which sells used clothing & accessories, that is located in old downtown Overland Park. It is called "Sacks on Santa Fe". We take donations at Sacks on Santa Fe. All of the proceeds, from the sales at Sacks on Santa Fe, go back into Heartstrings ~ so we can continue to provide services to the adults that we serve. Sacks on Santa Fe is a really fun little store! We'd LOVE to have any and all donations of clothing you'd like to send our way!! Check our our web-site!
Blessings,
D. L.

Overland Park Church of Christ (corner of 119th and Pflumm) has a sharing ministry you can donate to and they will give it to people in need. Also, there is a Salvation Army a little further down Pflumm that helps homeless families get back on their feet.
