"To our surprise, the shed has proved to be a strategic instrument of contact with the general public. We are known as the "church with the clothing shed" by those who frequent our neighborhood. We also find many opportunities to have personal contact with individuals that normally would not come to our church. They come to drop off clothing and a simple "thank you" from one of the congregation often opens a conversation that builds a bridge with a neighbor."
-Rev. Patrick A. Fleming
Fairport United Methodist Church

"It is with great enthusiasm that we recommend your business to others who may benefit from having a used clothing drop off on their premises… The income from the shed has been a great asset to our operating budget! "

"In the past five months the only item that has been placed in our shed that did not belong was a suitcase. I then gave the suitcase to our nearest consignment shop."

"The building was erected at the end of July and we have collected more clothing than we ever felt possible in this amount of time. The shed has been fairly easy to maintain and nothing has been left outside. "

"One morning while I was in the church office a young lady came in and approached me who was not well dressed, without any heavy clothing on. It was a pretty cold morning. She asked for clothing so I took her over to the shed and after going through many bags she found a sweatshirt that fit her just right that provided the warmth that she needed. I walked away with a good sense of what we are doing here in the community. It didn’t cost me anything; it only cost me walking across the street for ten minutes."

"The guys did an incredible job of setting everything up and were meticulous in the process. They even touched up imperfect areas on the paint work, hung the signage and swept the shed! I'd like one of these in my backyard! "
