United Action for Youth Attic

United Action for Youth's 410 Iowa Avenue office housed boxes of wonderful donated baby and child items in their attic. Over time, the accumulated clothes, toys, and gear built up to an inaccessible pile.


JSL members sorted through all the items, then categorized the clothes by size and gear by need. We built a nifty hanging system that case workers could "shop" before visiting families.



Check out the new -- and neat -- UAY attic!
