Accepted Donations

Thank you for considering making an in-kind donation to the Young Women’s Resource Center. Your support helps us continue our mission.

Please keep in mind that we have limited storage for in-kind donations. We would prefer that our donations be new or gently used (excellent condition).

Donations are accepted on Tuesdays and Thursdays during our office hours: 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.  Please call ahead before dropping off items so we have staff to assist you with your drop- off.

If you are bringing in items we do not accept (see below list), they will be donated to St. Vincent De Paul Thrift Store or Overflow Thrift Store.
