WHAT IS IT?
A clothing swap is a free exchange of gently used clothing, accessories, and even small household items. No money changes hands and there is no limit to what you can bring or take. We trust each other to mindfully take what we need and share within our community.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
We need awesome volunteers to help us make this event a smashing success. From setting up to welcoming attendees and everything in between, your energy will be a game-changer. Ready to lend a hand? Sign up to volunteer here: bit.ly/SwapVolNov2024
WHO IS IT FOR?
Our swap is for adult people of all genders and body sizes. All clothing will be combined and then sorted into two sections:
1. plus or extended sizes (XL and up).
2. straight sizes (L and down)
Then clothing will be sorted by type (top, bottom, etc).
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
The swap is free! We don't want availability of funds to be a barrier to participating. That said, we will gladly accept donations in any amount. Any funds collected through donations will be used for future events (marketing, supplies, etc).
HOW DO I PARTICIPATE?
Bring your gently used clothing, accessories, and small household items to the event (or connect ahead of time to arrange an earlier drop off). Stay and browse. Try things on. Bring a bag to take home what you'd like! Meet cool people!
We recommend wearing light foundation garments (a thin top and bottoms/leggings). There will be limited space for trying on clothes so trying on items over what you're wearing will be your best option.
WHEN SHOULD I COME?
The nature of a swap is that it evolves over the course of the event. You can come at the beginning and stay the whole time or come later. Most people tend to come within the first two hours.
WHAT CAN I BRING?
Gently used clothing, accessories, or small household goods that no longer spark joy for you.
A note about condition - we want folks to bring things to the swap in wearable condition.
PLEASE DO NOT BRING:
- clothing or items that are dirty, stained, have holes, covered in pet hair, etc.
- kids clothing/items
WHAT HAPPENS TO THE LEFTOVERS?
Leftover items are donated to a local charity.
CAN I BRING A FRIEND?
Yes, please do! And invite them to join the CinciFatty group at facebook.com/groups/cincifatty or follow Heartland Trans Wellness at www.facebook.com/heartland.transwellness!
