The "Give Back Rack" is filled with gently used clothing that has been donated by Sandy's friends and customers. All sale proceeds of these clothes are donated to various area charities.
These items can't be purchased online and are available at "The Barn". If you are cleaning your closets, feel free to drop off any clothes that you no longer want.

By educating the public about human trafficking, Fierce Freedom will continue to help reduce this horrific crime and work to disrupt cycles of exploitation.
