What We Need

 

In-Kind Donations

In-Kind donations are a valuable way to give to HomePlate. View our wishlists below to learn more about what we can take from donors. Need to coordinate another drop off time?

Because our biggest needs are housing and employment, please consider a cash donation to support youth in their journey to find stability. We have an extensive list, but our most consistent needs are:

  • Backpacks

  • Shoes (men’s and women’s - new or gently used preferred)

  • Underwear (men’s and women’s - new)

  • Full-sized hygiene items (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, etc.)

  • Clothing (men’s and women’s, all sizes!!)

  • Reusable water bottles

HomePlate appreciates all of the donations we receive, but do have limited storage for our resources. Volunteers regularly clean-out items that have not been recently requested/taken by youth and recycle these items through our local Vietnam Veterans program.

This program keeps items out of landfills, raises funds for HomePlate, AND most importantly, ensures we can keep a strategic and thoughtfully supplied stock of our necessary resources available for youth in our community.
