Do you have new or gently used items you’d like to give away? We provide free pick-ups for large items. Ways you can donate include: donating items from home or your business/church/organizations, host a donation drive and, last but not least, spread the word! By making a donation, you will help Habitat eliminate substandard housing and prevent items from ending up in the landfill.

DONATING IS EASY AS 1-2-3:
