GRUNDY COUNTY – Last year, council and committee members of the Fredsville Lutheran Church in rural Dike decided that with plenty of in-need families right here in Grundy County, they wanted to extend their outreach closer to home.
Their solution – The Family Closet. 
The Family Closet is a free, need-based clothing distribution center located in the basement of the Fredsville Church. There are no restrictions based off of location or income, so anyone can come from anywhere and take as much or as little clothing as they want for free, and anonymously.
