Friday, March 9, 4:30-8pm [clothing drop-off]; Saturday, March 10, 11am-6pm [Swap for Solidarity boutique]; St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church, 30 W. Woodruff Ave.

Our closets are overflowing with awesome clothes that we never wear, accessories bought on a whim, shoes that have only been worn once (or sometimes twice), so much feminist swag, and all this has much more life left.

Let’s put those items to use, be green, save some green, and give some green! We’re raising money for Women Have Options Ohio, helping patients across Ohio since 1992 to control their reproductive choices regardless of financial barriers! The money raised will fill a vital health care gap by helping to pay for abortion services, contraception, emergency contraception, options counseling, and transportation costs to clinics.

How it works: entry is $10; tickets are available online and at the door.

Bring your unwanted items to St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church on March 9, 4:30-8pm, to get your “golden ticket” that allows you to take unlimited items at the swap the next day.

A massive amount of clothing will be available during the exchange and volunteers will arrange it into our fabulous “Swap for Solidarity” boutique. The swap will be 11am-6pm on Saturday: come at any time and stay as long as you wish. It should be a fun party the whole time!

At the end of the swap, leftover items will be donated to various community groups, including those that serve teens in need and LGBTQ youth; also, rural career closets, prom programs, refugee and immigrant groups, domestic violence shelters, and the Volunteers of America Thrift Store.

The full, fluid, and beautiful range of gender presentations are welcome at this swap! We work hard to make sure that everyone is comfortable attending and participating as who they are. All adult clothing is welcome and available!
