Donating to Women Giving Back
Women Giving Back operates a boutique-style distribution center in Sterling, Virginia where women, children, and families in need can shop for free. Referred clients browse clothing, shoes, and accessories in a dignified setting that feels like a real store, not a handout.
This model is intentional. Women Giving Back believes everyone deserves to choose their own clothing with dignity. Clients are referred through social workers and partner agencies, and each person receives personal shopping assistance in a private, welcoming environment.
Your donated clothing goes directly to someone who needs it. Women Giving Back accepts women's, children's, and men's clothing, shoes, accessories, handbags, and new toiletries. Items should be in good condition and current in style. If you're in the Northern Virginia area, this organization turns your closet cleanout into someone else's fresh start.
