Refuge House makes in its mission to help battered women and children. Now they need your help to get the children ready for the new school year.

"So many of the kids come to our shelters with just the clothes they had on their back when they left their homes. We really like for our kids, and they of course really like to start their first day, first week of school with clean new clothes," said Emily Mitchel with Refuge House.

Mitchel says they especially need donations for middle school and high school age boys.Call Refuge House at 850-922-6062 for more information on drop-off locations. Or visit their website www.refugehouse.com.
