*These items are
stored in a place separate from the clothing.
The client must specifically request
one of these
items and we try to ensure that the individuals making the request truly need
that item.
**Travel-size versions of these are great! If you do a lot of traveling and come back with hotel versions of these,
feel free to bring them by CTLC. Our volunteers put together small personal hygiene bags for our clients
that include one of each of these items.
