Tuscarora Lutheran Parish Community Closet

The TLP Community Closet ministry aims to serve as a community clothing “bank” for residents of the Tuscarora School District and surrounding areas. 

“When we decided a few years ago to join St. John’s, St. Stephen’s and St. Luke’s into a new parish (Tuscarora Lutheran Parish) one of our goals was to pool our volunteer resources.  We wanted to find new ways to connect to each other.  Many of our members were eager to increase our visibility and service to our communities,” explains Allison Zeger, TLP Joint Council President.  “The success of My Neighbor’s Bounty and Bountiful Blessings in Mercersburg gave us the idea to create something similar, but with clothing.  We hope our neighbors will use this resource to help them through hard times and then pay it forward.” 

We encourage anyone on a budget to take advantage of this ministry!

If you are interested in volunteering or donating clothes for future dates, please email Allison Zeger at allison@graphic-response.com.
