At this time we are only accepting donations that meet our client’s current needs. This includes food, baby items, toiletries and cleaning supplies. Please see lists below for specific ideas. You can bring a donation to Hope House Monday – Friday 8:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. You can also mail items via our Amazon Wishlist.
We are no longer accepting adult clothing or shoes, except brand new socks and underwear. We also do not accept mattresses, furniture, cribs or carseats.
We use an abundance of supplies each day at Hope House and give away even more to our families.
If you would like to make an in-kind donation you can drop them off any time between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. at Hope House’s Social Service house at 15 S. Idlewild St. You can also contact Erin Benfield at (901) 538-8438 or ebenfield@hopehousememphis.org for more information about coordinating a supply drive or donating supplies to Hope House.
Please contact Erin before dropping off a donation to ensure a member of the staff can be present to receive the donation. Please do not leave any donations on our porches. Please note we are closed for all school holidays.
