Give Like A Mother

Founded in 2018 by Amy Vann, Give Like A Mother (GLAM) was built on one mother’s desire to give the clothes she didn’t have and to make sure no child in her community would go without. What started as a simple act of compassion has grown into a movement of mothers, volunteers, and neighbors united by one commitment: to clothe kids in confidence. 

Through our flagship PACK Program, we provide Personalized, Age-appropriate, Confidence-boosting Kits; a week’s worth of gently used clothing donated by YOU, our amazing community. Each PACK is given to families free of charge, helping children show up to school feeling confident and ready to learn while easing the financial stress facing thousands of families in our region.

Though our name is fun and a little bit sassy, it carries with it a serious challenge. In this increasingly expensive world, mothers give everything they can for their children, even the clothes off their back—yet sometimes, even that isn’t enough.

Our ask is simple: we take your gently used clothing and give it new life, transforming what might have been tucked away in a drawer into confidence for a child who needs it most. 

A simple solution. A profound impact. Clothing changes how kids see themselves.

But we can’t do it alone. Not every item can be donated, and that’s where your generosity steps in. The essentials that don’t come through our doors—like new socks, underwear, shoes, or sensory-friendly clothing—are purchased to ensure no child is left out and every PACK feels personal, complete, and full of dignity.
