Ongoing Donation Needs
Cleaning Supplies
We need items like disinfectants, mops, brooms, and trash bags to maintain a clean and safe environment for our residents.
Toiletries
Donations of soap, shampoo, toothpaste, and other personal hygiene products are essential for the well-being of our clients.
Laundry Supplies
Contributions of laundry detergent, fabric softener, and dryer sheets ensure our residents can keep their clothing clean.
Gift Cards
Save-A-Lot, Family Dollar, or Dollar Tree cards are very helpful because they are easily accessible for residents and have a good selection of basic need items.
