ABOUT OUR FACILITIES
DONATION CENTER
At our Donation Center, we collect donations received from individuals, businesses and organizations. Here, donated items are sorted, cleaned, and stored until they are given to those who request help from us. Our team of volunteers work very hard to ensure the items we receive meet our standard before distributing them.

WAREHOUSE
Our Warehouse facility houses the larger donations (furniture, medical equipment, etc.) for distribution, and is also where we collect and sort cans & bottles for our monthly Can & Bottle Fundraiser. Additionally, this space is essential when we pack containers and shipments of aid to communities both in & outside the U.S. affected by natural disasters and other crises, including our continuous shipments of barrels of relief aid to Mission of Hope in Haiti.
