USD 383 FIT Closet Guidelines

At the FIT Closet, our goal is to ensure equitable access for all qualifying USD 383 families. We prioritize supporting students by providing essential resources for their academic success. Due to an increase in families qualifying for our services, shoppers may schedule 1 appointment per month and be mindful of the item limits below.

Item Limits:

For each school-age child in your household, you may take:

  • 3 pairs of pants/shorts
  • 3 shirts
  • 1 dress/skirt
  • 1 jacket or coat
  • 1 pair of shoes

For each non-school-age member of your household, you may take:

  • 1 pair of pants/shorts
  • 1 shirt
  • 1 dress/skirt
  • 1 jacket or coat
  • 1 pair of shoes

 

If you encounter any unexpected needs throughout the month, please do not hesitate to contact the social worker at your child’s school.

Thank you for your understanding and support in ensuring the FIT Closet remains a valuable resource for our community.

  • To qualify, you must have a student enrolled in a USD 383 school who qualifies for free or reduced fees.

     

     

  • Shopping is by appointment only, with each shopper allowed to visit the FIT Closet once per calendar month. Appointments can be scheduled or rescheduled via the ParentSquare app.

  • If you are unable to attend your appointment, please reschedule or cancel it in the app beforehand. If you miss your appointment, you will need to contact us directly to arrange a new time.

  • If you cannot find a suitable appointment or miss your scheduled time, please us an email. We can prepare needed items for your student for pick-up at the FIT Closet or at your child’s school.

  • Shopping is free of charge; all items have been generously donated.

  • The FIT Closet is located at 901 Poyntz Ave. Please park behind the building (south side) off 10th Street and enter through door #5. The FIT Closet is just inside that door on the right.

  • We ask that you primarily shop for the school-age children in your household. While we understand that other family members may have clothing needs, we may not always be able to accommodate them.

  • During your FIT Closet appointment, you will receive 3 pairs of socks and 3 pairs of underwear for each school-age child in your household. *Currently, we are unable to provide new socks or underwear for adult family members.

  • The FIT Closet primarily focuses on the needs of qualifying school-age children. If we cannot accommodate other family members’ needs, we can refer you to additional organizations in Manhattan.
