In-Kind Donation Opportunities to Support Residents
Vive’s donation room contains everything that residents may need during their stay with us. Vive gratefully accepts in-kind donations to keep this room stocked.
Please do not bring unlisted items to Vive without calling us first! We have limited storage space and want to make sure your donation goes to the right place. If we are not able to accept your items, we may be able to point you to another worthy organization who will make use of your donations right away.
WE ARE CURRENTLY UNABLE TO ACCEPT DONATIONS OF GENTLY USED CLOTHING, other than the specific items listed below.
Donation drives: If your church, school, club, troop, office, or other group would like to hold a donation drive on behalf of Vive, thank you! Please contact us before you start to advertise your drive or collect items.
