October KidsGiving
In October, KidsGiving is supporting Clothesline for Arlington Kids, Arlington’s first free clothing store dedicated to children in grades K-12. The Clothesline provides a fun, boutique-like environment for low-income families to shop for and select a season’s worth of quality clothing – twice a year – completely free.
We are collecting NEW or EXCELLENT CONDITION - clean, stain-free, damage-free, and pet hair-free clothing for the fall/winter season, in sizes Youth 4 - Adult XXL (teen styles only). Please limit clothing donations to items that kids want to wear to school. Check out what they accept here.
Donation bins will be available in the Taylor lobby until Wednesday, October 21st. This is the perfect time to donate those winter/cold weather clothes as we start to change out our kids' wardrobe for cooler temperatures!

Many Arlington families, including Taylor students and their families, are impacted with high grocery prices, and other ongoing financial constraints. Local food pantries, Arlington Food Assistance Center (AFAC) and Capital Area Food Bank (CAFB), are experiencing record need at their pantries, with over 4,200 Arlington residents receiving free groceries from AFAC every week, a number expected to surpass 5,000 in the coming weeks. Below are a list of resources and information that may help families navigate these challenging times. Families needing referrals can reach out to Zamir Bridgman, Taylor's school social worker.
If you find yourself in a position to help others as we enter this season of giving, there are also options listed at the end for ways to help ensure our neighbors in need have dignified access to nutritious food.
