Thank you to our donors!
Our dream became a reality thanks to generous contributions from individuals and businesses in the community, and support from our schools who hosted clothing, coin, and shoe drives.
Thank you to Frisco ISD!
FISD allows Frisco Threads to operate at the Acker Special Programs Center, and connects us with local businesses and churches who want to support our mission with clothing and monetary donations.
FISD School Support Specialists were instrumental in connecting students in need with Frisco Threads, often shopping and delivering clothing to the students themselves.
