Clothing Swap to Benefit CASA at Gulfport Tuesday Fresh Market

GULFPORT, FL: Gulfport’s next free clothing swap will take place at the Gulfport Tuesday Fresh Market on Tuesday, October 8th from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

This very popular event is now regularly scheduled on the second Tuesday of each month and takes place in the courtyard adjacent to the historic Peninsula Inn at 2937 Beach Blvd. South. Participants are invited to bring up to five gently used garments to exchange for vouchers that may be used to select clothing brought in by other participants. Items may be for women, men or children. Gently used shoes and wardrobe accessories are also accepted. Please provide hangers for all garments to be used in the swap. For anyone interested, vouchers may also be purchased for $3 each.

Donations of clothing above the 5-garment limit are encouraged and accepted. All additional donations should be contained in bags or boxes. All cash proceeds, donated clothing, and non-selected garments at the end of the swap will be donated to Community Action Stops Abuse (CASA). CASA is a local non-profit organization providing services to survivors of abuse or violence.
