A large warehouse filled with tall industrial shelving and colour-coded plastic crates. The lower level is lined with dozens of overflowing bins filled with donated clothes, many of them children’s items in plastic bags. Cardboard boxes and containers are stacked on shelves to the left, while purple, orange, and grey crates are stacked on the right.
