The Estelle J. Kelsey Foundation has a rich history of philanthropy. Born and raised in a small town, Estelle understood firsthand the challenges that many individuals and families encounter when it comes to accessing basic necessities like clothing.

From healthcare and education to social services and community development, the Estelle J. Kelsey Foundation has touched countless lives and made a lasting impact on countless communities.

For Good Shepherd's Clothes Closet, the support of the Estelle J. Kelsey Foundation comes at a crucial time. As we continue to navigate the challenges brought about by the ongoing pandemic, the demand for our services has only grown. Many individuals and families are facing financial hardship, making it difficult to afford essential items like clothing. With the generous grant from the Estelle J. Kelsey Foundation, we will be able to expand our reach and provide assistance to even more people in need.

This grant will allow us to stock our shelves with a wider variety of clothing options, ensuring that we can meet the diverse needs of our community. It will also enable us to enhance our facilities and infrastructure, creating a more welcoming and comfortable environment for those who visit us seeking assistance. Additionally, the grant will support our outreach efforts, helping us to raise awareness about the services we offer and reach individuals who may benefit from our support.

As we express our gratitude to the Estelle J. Kelsey Foundation for their generosity, we also extend our heartfelt thanks to all those who support our mission. Whether through donations, volunteering, or simply spreading the word about the work we do, it is the support of our community that allows us to continue making a difference in the lives of those we serve.

In the spirit of Estelle J. Kelsey herself, we remain committed to serving with compassion, empathy, and a deep sense of gratitude. Together, we can build a brighter future for all members of our community, one act of kindness at a time.
