Our annual fundraiser on 8/24/2024 was a HUGE success!

Thank you to everyone who attended. We couldn't do it without your support!

A heartfelt thank you to all the generous businesses that donated to our fundraiser! Your support makes a tremendous difference in our community.

Thank you to Barefoot Construction, LLC & Narrin Outdoor Services for sponsoring our fundraiser. Your sponsorship helped us hit our fundraising goal out of the park - bringing us much closer to our goal of providing 300 costumes this year to children in need. Thank you for being a Halloween Hero!

Glinda's Closet partnered with Shelter of Flint on 9/30/2023 to give away costumes to 26 kiddos! Excitement was high as many kids couldn't wait for Halloween night and left wearing their costumes!

Thank you everyone for your support that allows us to give back in such meaningful ways!

Our Kick or Treat kickball game really KICKED our season off right!

Not only did we have a lot of fun, but we surpassed our fundraising goal by 200%! We are blown away from the support that we received and could not be more appreciative of everyone's generosity. These funds will be used to help support our initiatives with two new partnerships this fall, which will be announced very soon!

Haven’s Giveaway Event

10/08/2022

Our team brought a few hundred costumes and accessories from our magical closet to Haven today, where registered attendees could shop for basic need items and for Halloween Costumes for their families at no cost.

We were able to provide over 100 kids with costumes, candy, and trick-or-treat buckets today.

Glinda's Closet Costume Giveaway is a free public event where parents or guardians can bring their kids to try on free costumes from the spellbinding selection in Glinda’s Closet. We want to ensure families that may not be able to afford costumes this year can participate in the Halloween fun all October. We had a lot of little goblins leave with cool costumes and a big smile.

We provided costumes, treats, story time on the porch, and had a few special friends to help the kids shop our magical closet. Every kid left with a trick-or-treat bag. We hope to see you next year!
