Co-Founder & PresidentCommunity Nonprofit

Clothe to Care is a nonprofit I co-founded and now serve as President of alongside Dani Gimenez. What began as a single clothing drive has grown into a sustained operation: we collect donated clothing, organize it into coordinated outfits by size and gender, and distribute those outfits to families in need through ongoing community partnerships.

Primary Distribution Partner

Family Hope

Family Hope has been Clothe to Care's primary distribution partner since our earliest drives. Rather than a single handoff, we've worked together repeatedly across multiple drives to get donated clothing directly to the families who need it — an ongoing relationship, not a one-time collaboration.

Family Hope's Own Recognition

In 2026, Family Hope was named Best Nonprofit Organization in Houston Latino Family Magazine's "Best of Houston Latino 2026" — a distinction earned by Family Hope, not by Clothe to Care, included here only as context on the strength of our distribution partner.
