Halloween Costume Drive with Jersey Cares

Jersey Cares is collecting new and gently used Halloween Costumes!

For most children’s shelters and other Jersey Cares project partners, Halloween costumes do not make the list of essentials in the budget. Volunteers like you help to offset costume costs by collecting new and gently used costumes from our generous volunteers. Every October, this enables Jersey Cares to help children living in New Jersey’s shelters to have a Happy Halloween.

Jersey Cares will begin accepting items Wednesday, September 13th. Please send your items to the Jersey Cares office by Wednesday, October 25th.

Items accepted for the Halloween Costume Drive include:
