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)
• Seasonal decorations
• Furniture without prior approval
• Baby cribs, walkers, bouncy chairs, etc.
• Exercise equipment

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