Donate Your Stuff to Stop Domestic Abuse! 

Donating tangible items is a great way to support the mission of Hope’s Door New Beginning Center and help the individuals and families that we serve.  Our wish list reflects our most urgently needed items. HDNBC also holds several donation drives each year to meet seasonal needs of our clients, including school supplies, Thanksgiving meals, and holiday toys/presents.
