Charity group seeking children's pajamas, clothing

Area residents have an opportunity to keep children in need warm this winter.

Friends of Unity is seeking warm pajamas for children 4 to 14 years old. The pajamas will go to God's Storehouse, a Detroit charity that assists people who are homeless or living in poverty. Donors can drop off clothing through Dec. 3. Take donations to the Plymouth Community Arts Council building at 774 N, Sheldon Road, Plymouth.

Clothing can be placed in a labeled drop box in the lobby from noon until 4 p.m. Tuesdays through Thursdays and from 9 a.m. until noon Sundays. Hours are subject to change: https://www.plymoutharts.com/

The annual children's clothing drive is a collaborative effort started by Song and Spirit, a Royal Oak interfaith nonprofit.  Mary Gilhuly, co-founder and volunteer for the group, works with several faith organizations including the Friends of Unity in Plymouth/Canton, Northville and beyond.
