We're clothing kids in confidence.
Join Give Like a Mother in helping children and teens put their best foot forward, one shoe at a time.
What is Give Like a Mother?
Give Like a Mother (GLAM) is a licensed 501(c)3 nonprofit focused on providing local children and teens in need with seasonally appropriate clothing.
Although we operate on gently used items, we pride ourselves on providing quality, in-style clothing to the young people we serve. We want children to be proud to wear the clothing they receive. We believe this can increase self-worth, decrease ridicule, and in turn have a positive effect on their experience and performance in school.
While our name is fun and a little sassy, we mean it as a challenge. Too often, mothers give everything they can for their children and it is still not enough.
This is why we are asking you: Will you Give Like a Mother and help a child in need?
Our Mission
To ensure that children in our community have appropriate clothing needed to provide safety, comfort, and higher self-worth.
Why give?
The Need for Clothing
2 in 5 children in Greater Cincinnati are living at or below the Federal Poverty Line. It is estimated that over 200,000 children in our region are experiencing clothing insecurity. Without affordable, adequate, and appropriate clothing, children face unfair barriers that are out of their control and participate in life on an unequal playing field.
Cited as one of the top 10 reasons children miss school, clothing is instrumental in not only shielding children from the elements, but also in influencing their interactions with peers and shaping how they view themselves. When children are clothed in items that are clean, fit well and ensure comfort, they have an increased sense of self-worth that allows them to thrive in school and in life.
Whether you give items, funds, or time, you are making a difference for local families experiencing economic hardship.
Where Your Clothes Go
When you give clothing items to Give Like a Mother, you can trust that your contributions go directly towards supporting local efforts to clothe those in need. All items we receive are given to the young people we serve, passed on to local organizations or recycled here in Cincinnati. By giving to GLAM, you are extending the life of your used items!
