Bethany House accepts donations of new, unopened items from individuals, churches, community groups, and clubs. Donations are needed to support the daily operations of the safe houses (e.g. toilet paper, unopened cleaning supplies, new blankets, and comforters) as well as special events (e.g. Back to School, Christmas) and Aftercare client support.

 

Donating gift cards to grocery stores, pharmacies, and general retail stores (such as Giant, Shoppers Food Warehouse, CVS, Walmart, Target, Ross, Marshall's, or Kmart) are a great way to help us meet the diverse and immediate needs of the women and children we serve.

​

Unfortunately, because of the nature of the care and services we provide to our clients, we can no longer accept used items. Thank you for your understanding.

​

We are not accepting clothing donations.
