Donations for Families In Need
The YWCA frequently accepts donations for families in our residences and for women and children who seek help through our programs. To donate an in-kind gift, please call ahead to ensure that your donation can be accepted. The YWCA has limited storage space and although we appreciate gifts of furniture, equipment, clothes and other items for use by clients, we may not always be able to accept them if there is not an immediate need.

Host a Cell Phone Drive
The YWCA collects used cell phones which are refurbished to benefit the YWCA’s Domestic Violence and Rape Crisis Programs. To host a corporate drive or to become a drop off location, a company provides a drop off box, a staff member to be a liaison to the YWCA and promotes the drive to employees or customers. The YWCA provides a ready-made flyer for distribution and will pick up cell phones at your location. Download a generic flyer and get started, or contact Andy Polanco at 978-687-0331 to design special materials.

Office Supplies
By donating equipment and office supplies, you can help the YWCA offset administrative costs and thereby fund more services.

Fundraising Donations
The YWCA appreciates in-kind donations including products, memorabilia, art, dining and shopping gift certificates year round for auction, raffle or inclusion at our fundraising events.

Professional Services
If you have technical skill or expertise that you would like to donate to the YWCA on an ongoing or project basis, we would warmly welcome your ideas!

Group Projects
Corporate teams are welcome to help out, too. If you have project idea, or would like to know what projects are waiting to be tackled here at the YWCA, we would like to hear from you.

To make a donation of goods or services, contact Susan McNeff at 978-687-0331 x1029.
