Material Donations
We rely completely upon the generosity of the community. Help support the women and children we serve by donating new or clean, gently used items that are listed below.
To make sure we have plenty of room for spring/summer arrivals, we will be pausing all donations at the Outreach Center starting on Monday, March 23 through Monday, April 13. During this brief window, our team will be busy transitioning our inventory from winter gear to spring/summer essentials for our moms and babies. We appreciate your patience as we organize and prepare for a fresh season of giving! Donations will resume on Friday, April 17.
