For the past three decades, The Wardrobe has been working to end clothing insecurity across Philadelphia.
The nonprofit — with various locations in and around the city — supports approximately 10,000 people annually by upcycling gently used or new clothing, as well as offering education programs to help Philadelphians succeed professionally.

The Wardrobe will be hosting a 30th Anniversary Celebration and VIP Party this Friday, May 30, at Rivers Casino. Supporters are invited to celebrate The Wardrobe’s growth and success over 30 years, as a leading organization eliminating clothing insecurity, empowering people for success, and curbing fashion waste.
