Donate Items
DONATED NEW AND GENTLY-USED BABY AND TODDLER ITEMS ARE ESSENTIAL TO OUR WORK
We rely on in-kind donations of new and gently-used baby and toddler items to support over 1,500 children each year. All of these items are essential to ensuring children in Central Virginia are clean, healthy and cared for. Each item serves a purpose – whether to provide comfort, support development, encourage early literacy, or promote safety.
By ensuring children have the essentials they need during their early childhood, we are helping to improve outcomes for life. Learn about how these items are distributed through our programs here.

Purchase High-Need Items
There are certain items that must be new. And others that can be gently-used but are very hard to keep in stock because of high demand and we just don’t get enough donated in-kind. Help us keep our shelves stocked by purchasing these items off our Amazon Wish List. Or sign up for our Support Squad to receive a monthly email with our most-needed items at that time
Become a Corporate Partner
We are so grateful to corporate partners who help us stock our shelves. Whether it’s a local company that holds an annual donation drive for us, or a national company that donated pallets for items that we need.
