In-Kind Donations
Often women and children leave everything behind when seeking safety from domestic violence. Donations of essential items provide comfort, dignity, and practical support during times of transition and healing.
In 2025, we launched Hope Days to better meet the needs of those we serve and strengthen the wider community support network. Hope Days are quarterly donation drives where we invite the community to contribute items from our Wish List. Information on upcoming Hope Days, including the scheduled date and current Wish List, is shared on our website and social media pages. On designated Hope Days, donations can be dropped off at our designated location.
