United Action for Youth offers free, gently used clothes for teens

United Action for Youth (UAY) is holding a Teen Clothing Drive. On Thursday, Dec. 9, young people ages 12-18 are invited to "shop" for free clothing items between 2 and 7 p.m. at the UAY Youth Center, 355 Iowa Ave.

All clothing items will be distributed free to junior high and high school students. Please invite young people from your program, agency, or school to UAY on this day to receive winter clothing items.

Meanwhile, if you have young adult clothing to donate to the cause, please drop your gently worn, winter clothing off at the UAY Youth Center Wednesday, Dec. 8, to allow for time to launder, sort and organize it for the Dec. 9 event.  (Please, no baby clothes, older adult clothes or clothing items that would not be appropriate for young adults.) For more information, contact Mickey Hampton, UAY volunteer coordinator, at 338-7518, or visit
