Donating Goods
Government funding crucial to Tubman's programming needs has not seen an increase since 2018. To best meet the needs of the people we serve, specific donation lists have been created for the items we need to ease the burden on our budget and provide clients with the supplies they need to aid their journey from fear to freedom. Each month will feature a different theme of needs for the people we serve, to better streamline the process and keep items that are most-needed.
This month, we are featuring Health & Hygiene items.
Tubman is about affirming the respect and dignity inherent in everyone we serve. Having new, full-size hygiene items that people can use in their time with us, that they're able to take with them and not have to worry about later, creates a sense of normalcy in a time of transition and upheaval from routine.
Donations of these items, unless otherwise specified, should be NEW, UNUSED, FULL-SIZE, and UNOPENED.
We are not currently accepting donations for gently used clothing.
