What is the FreeStore?
Its a warehouse where we store household items that we give to families who are moving out of Children & Families of Iowas Domestic Violence Services. Often the women and children left their homes in the middle of the night with little but the clothes on their backs. At CFI’s shelter they receive help to start new independent and safe lives. The problem arises when they are ready to move into their own apartments. They are often stymied because they have no household goods.
