To you, it is a donation. To someone in need, it can be a life-changing difference. Charitable donations can be made to Catholic Charities in many ways. Each donation of time, funds, or goods helps a person or family in need. We are happy to accept the donation that best fits your circumstances. No gift is too small.
Catholic Charities is here to help with various services and programs for members of our community dealing with personal struggles or looking to improve their lives, made possible by donations of goods.
Please ensure that any donations are in "new" or “gently used condition.” We accept furniture, appliances, household items, bicycles, sporting goods, kitchen equipment, and more. We will no longer take computers, monitors, or computer equipment. All donations are tax-deductible. Catholic Charities provides receipts at the time of donation.
