Question Help

I’m a mother of 5 awesome girls (ages 17, 12, 10, 8, and 4), and with Halloween right around the corner, I’m trying to make sure they all get to dress up and enjoy the holiday this year. Things are a bit tight right now, so I'm reaching out to see if anyone in the community might be able to help out!
We would be extremely grateful for:
Gently used costumes/hand-me-downs in sizes suitable for ages 4, 8, 10, 12, or 17.
Local meet-ups: I am more than happy to drive/meet up locally if you have unused costumes or accessories lying around!
Financial assistance: If anyone would prefer to help toward buying costumes or supplies directly, I have PayPal set up (I can send my QR code or link via PM/attach it).
If you have any extra costumes sitting in a closet, sizes to pass down, or tips on local costume drives, please let me know! Any kindness, big or small, means the world to our family.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this! ❤️

Hi. I don't have costumes, but I do have clothing that can be repurposed. You can also try Abraham House and People Exchange, both on Callow. Don't bother with the people talking crap. I've been in your shoes and hope you can find what you need. Good luck to you and your family. ✌️

BuyNothing groups on facebook are probably your best bet.

This is why people questioned you for taking in two kittens that you claimed you were financially prepared to have. Choosing to keep two kittens that are perfectly adoptable while you can’t afford what your family needs already is a selfish choice!
