Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Emergency Assistance, Human Services, Philanthropy, Public Foundations, Thrift Shops
Mission: TOCO empowers children and families through green and community partnerships.
Results: OCO Shop and Textile Pantry provide free or subsidized clothing, shoes, and housewares to children and families. Last year alone we served over 500 families. In December 2015, we opened a second location at 2714 Cherokee Street to aid our St. Louis neighbors. With the added location, we hope to triple our outreach in 2016 to 1500 families. And we have plans to launch a third location in Edwardsville by Spring of 2016. Since 2007 TOCO has kept an estimated 750,000 pounds out of landfills and we continue to provide families opportunities to learn about sustainability and ways to give back to the community as we expand our reach into new locations.
Target demographics: thousands of families over the past six years out of our headquarters at 825 West Main Street in Belleville, Illinois.
Direct beneficiaries per year: over 500 families.
Geographic areas served: The Metro St. Louis and Metro East
Programs: TOCO Textile Pantry and TOCO Shop which through referrals from community members, schools, churches, and service agencies provide free or subsidized clothing, shoes, and housewares to children and families.
