Our Mission: Be The Thread of Change
Colorful Closets is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing clothing/mini-wardrobes for children in need, right here in our community. After recognizing the need, we set out to collect, organize and distribute clothing throughout the Amarillo area.
Colorful Closets of Amarillo truly believes that WE, as a community, are the body of Christ. Through your help, GOD IS WORKING! WE are the hands and feet of Jesus! Let us ALL come together in love to spread peace and kindness throughout our entire school district.
With the help of our donors, we have been able to provide clothing, warmth, hope and dignity to children at 44 of 55 AISD schools! We have been able to build confidence throughout our entire Amarillo community, BECAUSE OF YOU!

WHAT WE NEED

"I wanted to thank Colorful Closets for the clothes you brought out last week. We gave them to a 5th grade student on Friday afternoon. On Monday I saw that child in her new clothes. She had a presence I had not previously seen. Typically she looks down and has little eye contact. On this day, her head was held high, her walk straight and she smiled and spoke to me when we passed. I could tell she felt great in her new clothes! Thank you for going out of your way to match styles and ages. Your work has more impact than you will ever know."

KEELY BROWNI have found that through personal trials in my life, it has proven better for me when done with a measure of humor, but most importantly, having JESUS and a support system to hold me up when times get tough.
My passion and desire is to help others feel supported, valued and special. When I see a child in need, it is hard for me to turn a blind eye. There have been people along the way, who have made a huge impact in my life, my marriage and my children's lives during hard times, and I am forever grateful! Now, I want to give back. |

LINDSEY WING"Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain in what we cannot see." Hebrews 11:1. I wish for the closet to be a light for those in need, a welcomed joy in someone's day, a burden lifted off their shoulders and a sweet relief to someone trying so hard to make ends meet.
God has truly shown his glory in the workings of the closet! I am beyond blessed to be a witness to His doings! I can't help but want to pass it along to others. Keely and I are only a piece of His puzzle. And all of you are helping put this puzzle together to Glorify Him! |
