Charline Armstrong

Founder | Advocate for Dignity & Community Care

​

​

After working in the healthcare industry for over seven years, I have firsthand experienced the resilience and struggles of individuals and families facing life’s most challenging seasons. That time taught me compassion, advocacy, and the power of meeting people where they are. But deep in my heart, I felt a persistent calling—a desire to serve in a way that went beyond clinical care.

​

This calling stems from my own lived experience. I grew up in a single-parent home where being in need was a constant reality. One memory stands out vividly: I was 16 years old, a young mom with an 8-month-old son, when we were evicted—something that happened almost every year of my life. That time, we lost everything. I walked 45 minutes to my aunt’s house, where my mom, my son, and I slept on the floor for months. When we eventually found a place to live, we moved in with nothing—no furniture, no beds, no crib for my son. We slept on the floor until my mom saved enough to buy beds for each of us. There were days we simply didn’t have enough.

​

Clothed With Love is now the resource my family so desperately needed all those years ago. It’s a mobile ministry that meets people where they are, offering love, dignity, and tangible support during their season of need.

​

That calling led to the birth of Clothed With Love, a grassroots charity that provides gently used and brand-new clothing, toys, books, and light household items to individuals and families in need. Our mission is simple yet powerful: to provide essential items to those facing challenges, spreading love and support in the community. Through our initiatives, we aim to make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals and families in need. Today, through Clothed With Love, we've supported over 550 individuals—and counting.

At the heart of everything I do is the belief that everyone deserves to be seen, supported, and clothed—with love.

Outside of work, I enjoy time with family and friends, relaxing near the water, and exploring new destinations through travel.
