Our impact
Every closet cleaned out, counted.
We measure what we can verify — items received, sorted, and distributed through partners — and report it honestly.

How we measure
Item counts come from volunteer sorting, not donor estimates. Pounds are calculated from weighed lots. “Families reached” is the aggregate number community partners report back — Outgrown never collects names or details about children or families.
