Donate Goods
Many survivors of domestic violence have been forced to leave their homes because of abuse, and arrive at our safe havens with just a suitcase. You can provide toiletries and other essential items they will need to rebuild their lives free from violence! Please note that all items must be new.
Most Needed:
- Feminine hygiene products
- Diapers & pull-ups
- Wipes
- Toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap)
- Laundry detergent
- New children's and young adult books - multicultural and inclusive books a plus!
- Welcome Kits (see below for more information)
