Donations
Guidelines for donations
Our mission is to provide clean, decent and
affordable clothing, household goods and many other items for
residents of our community. Please help us honor our
mission and be respectful of those we serve by donating
clothing, outerwear, accessories and household items that are in
excellent condition and immediately wearable or useable. We
accept quality items from housecleaning, rummage sales (no tags
or pricing) or when moving or clearing estates. Monetary
donations are welcomed, too. Cash donations and sales of items
in La Boutique provide the funds to pay the overhead so we can
continue our mission of providing clothing in our General Store
at 10 cents to $2.00.
