Commonpoint Queens announced that it is accepting donations for its Commonpoint Closet clothing boutique, which will operate at The Bay Terrace shopping center this June. Anyone can donate new or gently used professional attire to any of the four Commonpoint Queens locations around the borough.

“The Commonpoint Closet is a free clothing boutique. We empower young men and women on their road to economic independence by the professional attire to help them enter and thrive in the workforce,” according to the organization’s website.

Anyone can drop off new or gently used, clean professional attire at the following locations:
