Below are items we have a high need for at this time
Gift cards in denominations of $15-$25 (from stores that carry groceries, toiletries, household items, school supplies, etc.)
Gift cards must be $25 or more to better meet the needs of the families we serve.
Why Gift Cards: Gift cards allow the families we serve access to getting their basic human needs met. Families often leave with very little and struggle to meet their families’ basic needs: groceries, household items, clothing, and medication. Gift cards in small amounts offer flexibility, security and options to our clients, allowing them to purchase the items their families need to most to stay safe and healthy.
We Accept:
- Non-perishable food items
- Full sized & unopened cleaning supplies
- Full sized & unopened hygiene products & toiletries
- Pull ups, diapers, & wipes
We Do Not Accept:
- Used clothing & toy donations
- Hotel/Sample size items
- Furniture & appliances
- Baby strollers, cribs, changing tables (anything that holds an infant due to recalls)
- Expired or opened food
- Used and/or unsealed hygiene products, toiletries, & cleaning supplies
- Violent toys/games
- Religious or holiday related books or toys
