Jamie's Clothing Boutique

A Path to Dignity and Self-Confidence

Providing women and children at Mustard Seed Shelter with the clothing they need to feel dignified, confident, and ready for new opportunities.

Clothing for Confidence

At Mustard Seed Shelter, we believe that everyone deserves to feel good in their skin. Jamie’s Clothing Boutique provides women and children in need with access to clean, new or gently used clothing that helps restore dignity, confidence, and a sense of normalcy during challenging times.

How We Support Guests Through the Clothing Boutique:

  • Free Access to Clothing: Women and children living at Mustard Seed Shelter can shop for clothing free of charge, ensuring they have appropriate attire for daily needs, job interviews, and special occasions.
  • Personalized Clothing Support: Our staff assists guests in finding clothing that fits their needs, whether it’s professional wear for a job interview, warm weather gear, or clothing for children.
  • Quality and Comfort: We ensure that all clothing in the boutique is gently used, clean, and in good condition, so that each guest feels valued and cared for.
  • A Safe and Respectful Space: The Clothing Boutique is a welcoming, private space where women and children can choose what they need without embarrassment, restoring their sense of dignity.
  • Community Contributions: The boutique is stocked through generous donations from community members, local businesses, and supporters, helping us meet the clothing needs of our guests.

Why Jamie's Clothing Boutique?

When you visit Mustard Seed Shelter as a guest, volunteer or in any capacity, you will quickly see that we are not a “typical” shelter. Our boutique is just one example of the unique experience at our home. New guests are able to “shop” by appointment with a volunteer or more seasoned guest for clothing, accessories and shoes they need for themselves and their children. Seating, mirrors and cheerful décor make this an enjoyable experience.

We recently named our boutique in honor of Jamie Dycus, a guest who came to Mustard Seed in late 2021. Jamie was instrumental in helping create the boutique experience and kept the space organized and running smoothly for over three and-a-half years with the help of a team of volunteers.
