Free Clothing Distribution Event in Augusta for Hurricane Helene Victims
Augusta, Ga. – A wonderful opportunity is unfolding this Tuesday for families impacted by Hurricane Helene. The Salvation Army of Augusta is hosting a free clothing distribution event aimed at supporting those who are working hard to rebuild their lives. This event will take place across several locations in the city, and community members are encouraged to come out and take advantage of this generous offer.
When and Where
The distribution will run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on October 29. To participate, families can visit one of the four Family Stores or The Kroc Center. It’s important to note that the clothing will be available on a first-come, first-served basis, so arriving early is advisable. The available locations are geared towards making this as accessible as possible for the community.
Support for Rebuilding Lives
This event has been made **possible through a generous donation** from The Pros Fore Clothes Foundation, which underscores the community’s commitment to helping each other during tough times. The goal is simple yet profound: to provide essential clothing to families who are still feeling the effects of the hurricane. Major Jonathan Raymer, Area Commander for The Salvation Army of Augusta, highlighted the critical nature of the clothing voucher program that works alongside the Family Stores, ensuring families have access to necessary items during their recovery process.
What to Expect
A Chance to Say Thank You
In addition to providing clothing, there will also be an evening event to honor the first responders and linemen who stepped up following Hurricane Helene. Community members are encouraged to show their appreciation to these heroes who worked tirelessly to restore safety and comfort to Augusta.

The Salvation Army has a long-standing history of helping those in need, and this clothing distribution event is just one way they are making a positive impact in the community. “We’re grateful for The Pros Fore Clothes Foundation’s support, which will make a lasting impact on many families in Augusta who are still recovering from Hurricane Helene,” said Major Raymer.
As the community comes together for this event, it serves as a reminder of the resilience and kindness that prevails even in challenging times. So if you or someone you know could benefit from this clothing distribution, mark your calendars and plan to attend this incredible opportunity to receive much-needed clothing. Every little bit helps, and together, Augusta can heal and rebuild for a brighter future.
