Good Clothes Good People

Good Clothes Good People is a volunteer-based organization that has been serving students since November of 2018. We aim to increase accessibility to basic needs items for all UCLA undergraduate students. Our volunteers operate a basic needs distribution center in TBA, open 10am-5pm, where students can donate/pick up clothing for no additional cost. Here, students can also pick up a variety of everyday items, including soap, toothpaste, menstrual products, pencils, notebooks, folders, and more. We provide free rentals of important resources, and currently offer umbrellas for 3 days at a time, formal clothing for a week at a time, and wheelchairs/crutches for 3 weeks at a time. One of our main goals is to be as sustainable as possible, and this is reflected not only in our practices, but also in the recycled and organic products we offer, as well as the hygiene refill station where students can refill their bottles with products such as body wash, laundry detergent, and lotion. Our center is also essentially a free thrift shop, reducing textile waste by hundreds of pounds annually. We receive the majority of our funding from the $0.34/quarter GCGP Basic Needs Referendum, passed in 2020, and we use this money to support the UCLA community. We hope you'll stop by to pick up/donate! If you're interested in volunteering with us, please let us know via email or Instagram!
