Things We Need

Requested Donations from the Emergency Shelter

Thank you for your help and support!

Cultural sensitivity is greatly appreciated when purchasing personal care & hair products, clothing items, and toys as we serve a diverse population. Gift Cards are always at the top of our list because they allow a client to choose the items she needs for herself and her family.

Gift Cards to ShopRite, Gas Stations, Target and Wal-Mart are most helpful. We also need Gift Cards to AC Moore’s, Michael’s, Joann’s Fabrics, and Dollar Tree.

You can drop off donations at our Counseling & Support Services Office at 1860 Brunswick Ave in Lawrenceville. Contact Althea at (609) 394-9000 for additional information or to schedule an in-kind donation drop-off.
