The Hays Public Library is sponsoring a clothing giveaway through its annual Community Threads program from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday in the Schmidt Gallery.

The event is open to the public, and there are no income requirements. People can take as many pieces of clothing, jewelry or shoes as they wish.

Infant through adult clothing is available in a variety of sizes.

Katie Meitner, adult library assistant, said Community Threads has received more children’s clothing this year than last year.

“This is our second year of doing this, providing clothing. We think the library is a good, central spot for the community to hold an event like this, and with school starting in August, kids can come get clothes for school.”

All the items for the Community Threads giveaway were donated.

“People have been really generous and given some really, really nice, clean, gently used clothing this year,” Meitner said.
