Summer is now upon us and we are happy to say we have a nice selecton of summer clothes.   We are always looking for new underwear and socks for women and children.  We have been blessed to receive some towel donations thanks to St Marks Church in Greece.   There is a limited supply available for our clients.  If you have towels that you can spare or full /queen sheets they are most welcome.   We should continue to keep our donations drop off available until August.   At that time we will halt those spring/summer as we transition to fall and winter.   Thanks to all of you for your generous donations.  Without your assistance we could not service those in Greece that need some help.    

Sincerely,

Diane Kozakiewicz

Hello Spring and beautiful weather.    We certainly havae missed you.   We now have spring and some summer clothing in the Clothing Closet.   Thanks to our friends at Ridgemont Wegmans and St. Mark Church in Greece we have lots of new to you clothing already stocked in the store.   If you have not refreshed your spring wardrobe, consider dropping of those items that you can no longer use to use.   We will accept your spring/summer donations in the White 13 gallon kitchen bags when we are open.   Our open hours are Tuesday 10-12, Wednesday 4-6 and Saturday 9-11.   For special arrangements you may call us at 585-397-2192.  Thank you for thinking of us.

Hello Spring!   I know it might now seem like it but its coming.   We are starting to prepare for nice weather and lighter weight clothing. We will soon begin our transition from winter to spring.  We will begin to accept spring/summer clothing beginning March 14, 2023.  We will no longer be accepting fall/winter clothing until mid September.  Items we could use are childrens clothing, sneakers, full/queen size sheet and bath towels. Please place your donations in the 13 gallon white kitchen trash bags.  We have bags if you need them. They can be dropped off when we are open, Tuesday 10-12; Wednesday 4-6; and Saturday 9-11.   If you would like to purchase childrens clothing for us, Kid to Kid used clothing store on Ridge Rd next to Sketchers is a great place to shop.  We thank you all for your generosity this winter with jackets and blankets.  We will again ask for your help with these items in September. As we say goodbye to the winter months we look forward to the beautiful blue skies, birds chirping and blooming gardens.  God Bless You All !

Will the groundhog find his shadow or not?.  This is always a mystery.  We thank you all for your patience with us as we have slowly gotten back to a new normal position at the Clothing Closet.  Our clients have continued to shop with only being open three days per week.   Tuesdays, 10:00-12:00; Wednesdays, 4:00-6:00; and Saturday 9-11.  During the month of December we served 89 familes.   This is amazing as prior to Covid we would serve 100 families in December with be open 6 days per week.  At this time we would love to offer more days, but we cannot find the staff.   If you are interested in volunteering, please call our Program Coordinator at 585-397-2192.

Thanks to the generosity of so many groups, we were able to provide 80 children with 2 pairs of pajamas each with our Gift of Bedtime Reading Program in December.  Also during the months of December and January we distributed 100 blankets, 64 adult winter coats and 42 childrens jackets .  We could not do this without your continued support.

We will be restarting our springtime donations in late March.  We are always in dire need of kids clothing sizes 6-16, full and queen size sheet and bath towels.  As you prepare for springtime, please think of us for these donations.   Unforturnately, we cannot accept any winter items again in September.   Thanks so much for your kindness and thoughtfulness.

Happy New Year to all! May the year 2023 bring you all good health, happiness , love and joy.   We are here to help as best as we can.   At this time we continue to have adult jackets and children's jackets.  We also have blankets and some pajamas available.   We will continue to be open Tuesday 10-12, Wednesday 4-6 and Saturday 9-11.  The Closet will continue to limit the number of clients in the store.  We do appreciate your patience and umderstanding.   

At this time we are accepting all season children's clothing, sheets and blankets.   Unfortunately, we cannot accept any more adult winter clothing.  Please save for the fall.  We will accept spring and summer clothing in late March 2023.  Watch our website for more details.

We would like to open up one more day, if you are interested in volunteering,   please call Diane Kozakiewicz at 397-2192.  The day we are looking at Mondays from 10-12.  You must be able to work each Monday.  

Thanks to all our wonderful donors last season.  We cannot operate without your support.

December is a very busy time for all of us and this is certainly no different for our volunteers at the Clothing Closet.   We work hard all year long to get the items we need throughout the year.   This year we are continuing our Gift of Bedtime Reading Program.  This program was started many years ago by a Greece School Teacher collecting books and warm pjs for our clients at Christmas Time.   Thanks to GRB Bank, Lynn Dates at Keller Williams Real Estate and Kathy O'Leary we will be distributing these gifts once again beginning this week while they last.   We are grateful to the Kiwanis Group, and a Special Friend who collected blankets for us. We have been blessed to receieved extra winter jackets from St. Mark's Church and new hoodies from St Charles.  Ridgemont Wegmans just completed a kids clothing drive for us.  The generosity of the community is amazing.  Without your help we could not service  those in need.  

At this time we are in dire need of childrens clothing sizes 6-14 and sheets for all types of beds.  We do not need any ladies or mens clothing at this time.  Therefore we will hold off accepting the men's and womens clothing except for jacket.  As space inside the shed and closet opens up we will open up these donations for these items.     Thank you all for your understanding we do appreciate it.  Merry Christmas to all.

October is bringing us cooler temperature and a burst of color in our neighborhoods.  We all know whats up next.   We are preparing for the cooler  temperatures and upcoming holidays.   Last year we had our 1st Annual Christmas Boutique.   It was our intent to continue that event again this year BUT the pandemic hit.  At this time we will not have the event that we planned but will continue our Gift of Bedtime Reading Program.   We hope to have some warm and fuzzy footie pajamas that will be distributed in December.  In order to do this event, once again I am asking for your help.   We will need NEW winter pajamas in size 2-16.  They should be dropped off in the 13 gallon kitchen bag marked Christmas PJS on the outside.   We will begin collecting these on Tuesday, October 13, 2020 until Thursday, November 12, 2020.  If you wish to make a financial donation instead of the PJ's, simply make your check payable to the Greece  Ecumenical Clothing Closet, mark pjs in the memo field and we will purchase for you.   Your check can be sent to:

I wanted to close out the year with a message to all.  Thank you God for all the Blessings we have received this year.   It certainly has been a year to remember. Thank you to our dedicated volunteers who have kept us going all year long.  Without you we could not continue to serve the community as we do.  Thank you to all the donors and community support we have received all year long to continue our mission of serving others.  Thank you to Gavin Watt our Eagle Scout who built us the beautiful shed to help  with our space problem.  The shed has allowed to store items that are donated for the proper season.   It also allowed us to put on a first ever Christmas Boutique.  This first time event serviced over 70 families with the Christmas Shopping.   We hope to continue next year.  Lastly thank you to the following Businesses for their donations and continued support, ESL Federal Credit Union, Fidelis Care, Wegmans, Family First of NY, GRB and Keller Williams Real Estate.   It certainly has been a year to remember.  Happy New Year to all!  We will reopen on Monday, January 6, 2020.

Thank you Lynn Dates from Keller Williams Real Estate for organizing a pajama drive for us. Your donation this morning was a blessing as we were almost out. We especially needed larger size warm pajamas for older children. These will add warmth for the nighttime for many children in Greece. Thanks again we truly appreciate your generous donation.

The first annual Christmas Boutique was a huge success.  Thanks to the many volunteers, donations and sponsorship from Fidelis Care we were able to provide this event.  The event was held from 4-7 pm on December 4, 2019.  As our group of volunteers were getting last minute instructions on how we were going to handle the a large group of people in the store, people were starting to line up outside at 3 pm.  The clients were let in 5 at a time to check in.  We kept the crowd moving as to limit the number in the store.They received a coupon for 5 preset stations.  They were allowed one item per child in the household.   They went station to station to select books, toys, socks and hats, stuffed animals and stocking stuffers.  By 5 pm we needed to reduce the number of items so that everyone could receive something.  By 6pm the customers were pretty much gone.   When the night was done we had provided 70 families  and 161 toys to our clients.  This certainly was well received with our clients and hope to do it again next year.

See images from the 2019 Christmas Boutique at Christmas 2019.

Several students from the University of Rochester volunteered at the Greece Ecumenical Clothing Closet today.

They performed a variety of chores such as washing the windows, cleaning the floors, sorting clothes, and removing old clothing.   Our sincere thanks to these volunteers for their efforts!

We have had a busy summer.  We have finally dedicated our new shed, built and donated with the help of Gavin Watt.  This was a huge undertaking for an Eagle Scout project but one that was very much appreciated.   We are now able to store off season items for future use.  During these hot summer days we don't want to think of boots, winter jackets & hats and we now have the storage capability for them.

We have made lots of new relationships this summer to help us fullfil our mission.   Thanks to ESL were able to purchase many items to help us keep this shed organized.  Wegmans has assisted us with the  bags we give to our clients, tape and cleaning supplies.  Fidelis Care has been donated the school supplies for our back to school supplies.  Bethany Church has donated much needed childrens underwear.  This has been so exciting for us.     A big shout out to our volunteers and community for keeping us growing and organized.  We are so thankful and blessed for all of you!

Here is a picture of Gavin with GECC officers Micky Corsi, Diane Englert, and Diane Kozakiewicz, at the dedication of the new shed.

We will be dedicating our New Shed on July 19, 2019, between 3-5.

Please stop by and take a look, enjoy some cookies and punch, and meet Gavin. Gavin is the prospective Eagle Scout who is responsible for our having a new shed.   He is a one in a million kid!

The new shed has been completed.

On Memorial Day weekend we were thrilled to have an Eagle Scout Project put up a new storage shed for us.   The new shed will free up space inside the Clothing Closet which will make the Clothing Closet neater and cleaner.

See the New shed page for information on how the shed came to be.
