Why Make a Material Donation?
Directly support your neighbors
While most donations are put out for sale in our stores, we also provide items directly to our neighbors in need, free of charge.
Help raise funds
Every dollar that is spent at one of our stores helps us help more of our neighbors break out of systemic poverty.
Give your goods new life
Your donation keeps your gently used items out of landfills and into the homes of neighbors who need them most.
We make it easy
With over 120 donation bins located across Metro Detroit, and five stores that double as donation centers, we make it quick and convenient for you to drop off your donations. We also offer donation pickup services for a small cost.
