EVALUATING IMPACT: STUDENT & PARTNER VOICES
“This experience of selecting clothing not only provides a physical transformation but also fosters an environment of trust and openness... This newfound confidence allows them to explore and articulate the areas in their lives that need attention, ultimately promoting personal growth and emotional well-being.”
“When I have what I need, I feel secure.”
“Catie’s Closet goes beyond simply enhancing students’ appearances; it serves as a beacon of hope and reassurance. This initiative embodies the belief that schools offer more than just academic education; they are safe havens where students can feel accepted and valued.”
“I feel like what would I have done if I didn’t have Catie’s Closet.”
“Catie’s Closet has been a vital resource for our students and families. It goes beyond clothing; it provides dignity, confidence, and a sense of belonging. It has helped us break down barriers that often prevent students from fully engaging in school.”
“Knowing I have new clothes makes me more confident.”
“When students have access to clean, well-fitting clothes, it reduces the visible differences that sometimes lead to bullying. They feel more included and less ashamed, which helps them focus on learning instead of worrying about being judged.”
In our 2025 partner survey, 100% of respondents stated that Catie’s Closet has a positive impact on students’ self-esteem.
