Kelly Hughes works as an occupational nurse at Roper and sometimes sees employees who are in the middle of a crisis. “Life isn’t always smooth, and we can all use help sometimes,” says Kelly. “Please only give clothes you’d be proud to wear.”
What is The Giving Closet?
A new donation program to help Roper employees. Whether it’s fire, a weather event or homelessness, any employee in crisis can find the clothes they need to work. Kelly will wash items donated by Roper employes, sort them, then store the clothes and shoes in a closet where other teammates can “shop” for what they need.
Do you need clothes or shoes?
The Giving Closet will open to employees to shop for free in mid-July. More details are coming.
