ALEXANDRIA, VA-The Center for Alexandria’s Children and the Fund for Alexandria’s Child have teamed up to open a new clothing and resource center. Called ALX Closet, it is located at the Del Pepper Community Resource Center (4850 Mark Center Drive, 5th Floor).

Donations are requested because the organizations behind the center want to support as many families as possible. Those interested in helping can donate the following:

  • Children’s clothing up to size 14/16 (and gift cards, as available)
  • Additional family resources: diapers, wipes, formula
  • Toiletries and hygiene products

“ALX Closet is dedicated to supporting Alexandria’s children and families in times of emergency or crisis by providing essential items to people in need,” reads an Alexandria eNews bulletin.

Email christine.levine@alexandriava.gov for more information. The center is also looking to form community partnerships.
