Uniform Vouchers

Schools Requiring Vouchers

Many schools have a dress code which requires a school logo embroidered shirt or a uniform, as is the case with vocational and parochial schools.

In these cases, Charity Newsies will provide a clothing voucher based on the school’s dress code. This is a single use voucher issued in the name of the child and school provided. It is non-transferable and must be used by the expiration date on the voucher.

The voucher is for a fixed amount. If the clothing is less than the amount of the voucher, no change is given. If the clothing is more than the amount, the applicant is required to pay the difference.

These vouchers are valid for in-person use (not online) at:

  • Education Apparel  (614)876-3030

  • The School Closet & School Days

Vocational Schools

For students attending a vocational school, uniform requests must go thru the student’s Guidance Counselor or trade teacher. Where applicable, students can receive the proper uniform for their field of study, such as medical scrubs, lab coats, smocks, aprons, chef coats, coveralls, and mechanic work shirts.
