Host a Cell Phone Drive
The YWCA collects used cell phones which are refurbished to benefit the YWCA’s Domestic Violence Programs. To host a corporate drive or to become a drop off location, a company provides a drop off box, a staff member to be a liaison to the YWCA and promotes the drive to employees or customers. The YWCA provides a ready-made flyer for distribution and will pick up cell phones at your location.
Office Supplies
By donating equipment and office supplies, you can help the YWCA offset administrative costs and thereby fund more services.
Promotional/Fundraising Donations
The YWCA appreciates in-kind donations including products, memorabilia, art, dining and shopping gift certificates year round for auction, raffle or inclusion at our fundraising events.

If you have technical skill or expertise that you would like to donate to the YWCA on an ongoing or project basis, we would warmly welcome your ideas!
Group Projects
Corporate teams are welcome to help out, too. If you have project idea, or would like to know what projects are waiting to be tackled here at the YWCA, we would like to hear from you.
Please be aware that the YWCA is unable to perform repairs, cleaning, or pick up donated items.
You can also support our efforts by offering a substantial discount on items, products or services to the YWCA. We use these donations for educational events/fundraising events/and other community outreach opportunities.
