Riverton Parke High School junior, Jenna Batty, has a deep passion for helping those in need. She has volunteered countless hours at the Clinton Clothing Corner and saw families in our community who needed assistance with clothing, hygiene items, baby products, and household cleaning products. Jenna wanted to do more than just volunteer there; she wanted to get the community involved in donating items that are in high demand to help the charity and even more families in need. Jenna organized a clothing and hygiene product drive at Riverton Parke Jr./Sr. High School to benefit the Clinton Clothing Corner. She was assisted by her friends and the National Honor Society. Over the course of two weeks, more than $800 worth of clothing and hygiene products were collected for the Clinton Clothing Corner. Jenna and a few NHS members delivered the goods to the charity on Friday, March 15, 2024.
Jenna stated, “I love working with Brittany MacLaren and I appreciate everything she has done in organizing and running this charity.”
If anyone is in need, the Clinton Clothing Corner is located at 301 Blackman St., Clinton, IN 47842. The hours of operation are listed on their Facebook page. Like them on Facebook, or email Brittany MacLaren at Clintonclothingcorner@yahoo.com if you are interested in volunteering, donating, or have questions. The Clinton Clothing Corner is always in need of packaged underwear and socks, diapers, baby wipes, laundry detergent pods, and feminine hygiene products.
