ReLoved Boutique @ MCC

kids clothes

Are your children outgrowing clothes faster than you can buy them? Do you have toys ready for a new home? Looking for a place in the neighborhood to volunteer your time? ReLoved Boutique at Manny Cantor Center is a partnership between the Askwith Kenner Family Resource Center and Early Childhood @ MCC where children’s gently used apparel, books, furniture, and other treasures find new homes. We carry sizes infant-5T.

RLB also features food staples, diapers and formula. Just stop in to shop or drop-off items in the bin directly in front of the store. When you visit the RLB stop by our new adult section. Pick up a pair of shorts, a warm coat, shoes, or an outfit for your next job interview.

ReLoved Boutique is managed by staff, parent volunteers, and community volunteers who believe in promoting sustainability and an economy of sharing. We are devoted to repurposing useful items in the spirit of giving, receiving, and community.

All items at ReLoved are FREE and available to all in our community.
