Holiday Drives
Every holiday season, we are filled with gratitude as organizations and families collect much needed items for our clients. Due to our limited storage capacity and varying needs, we ask our community to register their holiday drive in the form below. A member of our staff will be in touch to confirm that these items are needed and will coordinate a future drop-off for your items. This way, we are able to approrpiately monitor inventory and storage.
