The UAB extended community collected 70 hanging wardrobe boxes of clothing and multiple boxes of folded clothes, shoes, handbags, accessories and toiletries during the UAB Commission on the Status of Women’s annual Suits 4 Success clothing drive.
“Thanks to all who participated by giving your time and your items,” said Anita Clemon, chair of the UAB Commission on the Status of Women.
Clemon said they estimate each box weighed about 50 pounds, meaning more than two tons of clothing and other items were donated to the YWCA of Central Alabama and My Sister’s Closet.
