In-Kind Donations

Wishlist

Donate new household items to help new families and families moving into their own homes with a smooth transition.

Community of Hope accepts the following items for our Housing program. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, at this point, we are only able to accept NEW ITEMS. Our wish list is easy to purchase from on Amazon. We highly recommend helping our families through a drive of donations so you can engage even more people in our mission! You can even do it for a birthday, holiday, or any other celebration where you have no desire for gifts for yourself.

If you have any questions about our in-kind wish list, please email development@cohdc.org and a member of our team will follow up with you regarding your gift.
