Here’s how to prepare your donations for safe delivery:
- Items in plastic garbage bags harbor germs, bacteria, and mold.
- Instead, please package all donations in safe containers including paper bags, boxes, and reusable tubs.
- Make sure your donations are clean and in good repair.
- Freshly laundered, wiped down using sanitizer, packed in safe containers.
- If you have a large quantity of donations, please drop off in small batches so we may process your generous offerings.
At this time, our most needed items are:
- children’s clothing
- summer clothes
- household items
- back-to-school clothing
- shoes
- linens
Currently, we are NOT able to accept the following:
- WINTER clothing (will begin in September)

Thank you for your patience as we continue to prioritize the safety of our staff, volunteers, and donors.
