Closet Factory DFW is asking North Texas to help change that: Through the Closet Factory Cares Bags for Kids initiative, new, high-quality bags are being donated to Community Partners of Dallas. Now, the company is asking North Texas to help fill those bags with items that children in the system need most ' all with the goal of helping children in need feel valued and loved this holiday season and year-round.
