In the past I have read on here about a free Pesach clothing store where you can take your kids and go shopping for them. Does anyone know anything about it or have other ideas for me.
Until now, clothing expenses for my 4 kids have been about $100 a year - mostly socks and undergarments. The rest have been hand me downs or whatever. For my boys, I am still mostly set but as my girls are getting older it is not working any more - no more childrens place and carters.. on sale (with a coupon on top of that).
Thanks for all your help.

Following.
I would love if there were even something that would be less expensive, I don't want to be such a charity case that I take things for free, I'd feel like I'm robbing from tzedakah because I'm not poor but I can't afford store prices either. Is there a wholesale or consignment or something in the Brooklyn/NY area? I've heard there's a great secondhand store in Lakewood but I can't get there.

Contact Tomchei Shabbos. They steered a friend of mine to free outfits for Pesach. I don't know the organization, but she got vouchers for shoes and vochers for dry goods.

In Brooklyn there is Bobbi's place and you need people to vouch for you on the application.
Otherwise the girls schools all send home information about an organization who supplies brand new clothes through the schools before pesach that people can sign up for. A friend who's been helped through this says she gets to go choose the clothes and get for all her children including her sons.
