Your Help is Important!
Your donations of gently used items allow us to raise the funds to help people in need within our local area. We truly appreciate your generous donations and the significant contributions to helping lift others up when they need it most. You are helping make a difference!
We are a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable organization. Donations are tax deductible to the extent allowed by tax law.
What to Donate:
We gladly accept many household and personal items for resale, as noted above. In addition, there are many donors who donate specialty and unique items.
Unfortunately, we are not able to accept all items as donations. See the list on the bottom of this page.
Donation Tips:
It is easy and quick to donate your items. Just drop them off at our convenient drive-thru.
Head towards rear of building on 1st Avenue & follow the signs through Donation Drop-off Gate.
How to Donate:
Please bag or box your donated items. It is helpful to put all the pieces of an item together in a box or bag them to keep them together during processing.
Donations are accepted Mondays-Wednesdays 9-5, Fridays 9-5, Saturdays 9-4). Please do NOT leave items when we are closed and unable to receive donations. Items left after hours fall victim to the elements and end up in the trash. A convenient drive up donation door is accessible from a drive around the rear of the building – please follow the signs and enter at the north end of our east parking lot (rear of the building) northeast corner.
Donation receipts are available upon request. Staff is not able to provide a cost or valuation of your donations. Please check with your tax preparer or the IRS regarding donated values.
Deep Appreciation
We deeply appreciate your generosity! Please make sure your donated items are in a sellable condition. In order to be sold, items should be clean and without unusual odors, and in good repair. We cannot sell items that are missing important pieces, are broken or damaged, or that do not function properly. These items create more waste and processing costs, which reduce the assistance we are able to provide our community members in need. Your understanding and assistance is appreciated.
