Since 2022, FWCC has been the go-to hub for clothing and basic needs assistance in DFW.
FWCC began as a free clothing exchange and has transformed into the go-to place for essential needs. In 2025, we distributed 52,180 pounds of free clothing, 4,766 meals, 2,380 groceries for FWISD families, 571 school supplies & backpacks, and so much more.
Clothing and dignity go hand-in-hand. FWCC provides an always-free clothing rack for both adults and kids, along with our store voucher and urgent care bag programs.
We provide meal kits, pet food, and other necessities to community members, barrier-free. Resources available include:
All programs are free, no-barrier, and require no qualification. When life hits, you shouldn't have to qualify to meet your basic needs.
FWCC also supports local students and their families:
Through our FEED FWISD program, we provide a supplemental bag of shelf-stable and easy-to-prepare (for all ages!) groceries. Each bag contains breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and snacks for FWISD students and is delivered directly to their door! This one-of-a-kind program is a prime example of meeting the needs of our community.
This year's Back to School Bash supported 1,062 K-12 students! In a time of reduced support and rising school supply costs, we brought together free eye exams, UIL physicals, backpacks, uniforms, haircuts, and school supplies!

Fort Worth Community Collaborative (FWCC) is a community care organization providing free, dignified access to clothing, food, hygiene items, and essential support for individuals and families in North Texas.
Through mutual aid and sustainable redistribution, we reduce insecurity, strengthen community connections, and ensure no one is left without what they need to live with dignity.
We need your help to make sure our community members are fed, clothed, and have everyday necessities.
As a no-barrier closet, our organization proudly serves all ages, sizes and gender identities. One of our driving values is dignity, and this applies to everyone who comes to volunteer, partner, or shop with us. We also particularly work with LGBTQ+ organizations to provide gender affirming clothing. At FWCC, we have something for everyone!
