​Clothing, Housewares, Furniture and Electronic Donations

While not everyone has extra money to donate to important causes, nearly everyone has a box of household items or clothes they no longer need. By donating those items to Leeward, you are helping us fund critical local charities like food pantries and home heating assistance programs. Your good condition clothing and household donations are the life blood of our organization. There are however some donations that we simply cannot accept. These donations would cost us more in time or disposal costs than they are worth.

We accept ​casual donations (two or three bags/boxes) from 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM (Tuesday through Saturday) and from 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM (Sundays). We are closed on Mondays. If you have more than two or three bags/boxes, please call our main number to arrange for a donation time.

Donation Criteria

  • Your items should be in good condition not broken, stained, ripped, damaged, worn out, badly scratched, faded or wet.
  • Your items should be complete, not missing parts, buttons, remotes, cords, screws, or pieces.
  • Your items should be in good working condition, including all lights, switches, features and functions.
