IN-KIND DONATION FORM: Before you bring your donations, please fill out this in kind donation form. You may add in the value of each item to help complete your taxes. Please bring two copies of the form, so that we can sign one for you and keep one copy for our records.
CLOTHING AND BASIC HOUSEHOLD ITEMS: These small items are accepted in small quantities in our Suite 100 office at the reception desk from 8-11am. on Mondays and 1-3pm Wednesdays. Please fill out the donation form above to save time when you come by. You may also donate gently used adult clothing to Finders Keepers Consignment and ask them to put it on our account so that the organization benefits from sales.
