Tony's Closet

Fashioned like a boutique store, Tony’s Closet provides free, new household goods for CORA clients and their children as they transition from CORA’s safe house into their new homes. Only brand-new donated items are accepted, and items needed can be found on our Tony’s Closet Wishlist.

"This feels unreal, to be able to take what I need for me and my kids. And to be able to read about Tony and his impact on CORA makes me feel that much more grateful"

We Love Our Volunteers!

Tony’s Closet is powered by the generosity, time, and talent of volunteers throughout San Mateo County. Check out photos from some of our past volunteer days below. Learn more about volunteering here.

How it Started

Tony’s Closet was named in loving memory of Tony Myles, a devoted member of the CORA team who played a central role in imagining, designing, and helping bring the Closet to life. Created with care and intention, Tony’s Closet reflects the belief that survivors deserve dignity, comfort, and a sense of home as they move forward after abuse.

This space was made possible through Tony’s vision and the partnership and support of the Housing Industry Foundation. Today, Tony’s Closet continues to provide practical support in a way that honors choice, respect, and new beginnings.
