Jersey Cares Halloween Costume Drive
Please note that we can ONLY accept new and gently used children's costumes. We do not have the capacity to accept adult costumes.

For most children’s shelters and other Jersey Cares project partners, Halloween costumes do not make the list of essentials in the budget. Every October, Jersey Cares helps to offset costume costs by collecting new and gently used costumes from our generous volunteers, enabling children living in New Jersey’s shelters to have a Happy Halloween and enjoy the festivities that they see other children enjoying. In 2014, nearly 750 costumes were distributed to children in New Jersey. For more information on the Jersey Cares Halloween Costume Drive, or to register as a collection site, visit the Jersey Cares website.
