Hosting a Donation Drive

24-Hour Domestic Violence Hotline: 208.343.7025 24-hour Rape Crisis Hotline: 208.345.7273 (RAPE)

A donation drive is an easy way for people who want to help the WCA and its clients by providing new goods and services we need every day. Whether it’s batteries, infant formula or garbage bags, when people make donations of these items, we can spend more of our cash from grants and donations on direct client services.

Let us Know About it!

  • If we have any suggestions about your donation, we can offer them before you get started. If someone else is holding a similar event, we can help connect you to make the drive more successful. Also, although goody-bag-style donations have that extra heart-felt, special quality, WCA Staff have to disassemble each one to properly organize the items. The process is most efficient when your donated items are kept in bulk, presorted. Consider providing a monetary donation with the amount it would have cost to purchase the decorative packaging!

Deliver to the WCA

  • Please contact us to schedule your delivery. We’d love to thank you and take a photo! Currently, we can accept donations Monday, Tuesday and Thursday between noon and 4 p.m. Scheduling a time help to ensure that there is a staff person to assist you and that we have space to store the items.
