The St. Stephen - Milltown Rotary Club "Clothing Swap" in cooperation with Neighbourhood Works has been a tremendous success offering free clothing to everyone who needs it. St. Stephen has a sizeable homeless population and that those people need clothes, particularly coming into winter. There are also many newcomers to the area from the Philippines, Mexico and Cuba who also need warm clothing for winter. Only winter clothing was available for this event but we are already looking at doing another event in the spring offering summer wear.
The free clothing event took place on Wednesday, November 2 and Wednesday, November 9th at Neighbourhood Works, 59 Union Street in St. Stephen.
