Donating New Items
Donating new items from our Urgent & Essential Needs Lists helps Women’s Center & Shelter provide survivors of domestic violence and their children with the necessities they so often must leave behind. Your contributions provide comfort, safety, and confidence during one of the most challenging periods in a survivor’s journey.
