Aunt Leah’s Wishlist

Aunt Leah’s welcomes your donations of new and used items to give to youth and families in our programs, for our offices and program spaces and for fundraising through our Thrift Store and at special events.

How Your Donations Will Be Used

Supporting Youth and Families

Being on a limited budget often means that only the essentials can be provided and sometimes even that is a stretch. These are the kinds of things needed by our youth and families:

• Furnishings for their first apartment (especially the basics like small couches, coffee tables, armchairs, beds, night tables, small dinette sets) lightweight and easy to move pieces.
• Household appliances & electronics (toasters, microwaves, wall clocks, clock radios, TV’s, DVD players, small stereos).
• New or “like new” sheets and towels.
• Toiletries (don’t forget the products for boys).
• New or “like new” strollers, cribs, playpens, car seats, high chairs.
• Gift certificates are always appreciated for things like shoes and clothing.

Furnishing Offices & Program Spaces

We have been working hard over the years to be able to provide quality furnishings and equipment for our work and program spaces. A few things are still needed:

• Computers: the newer the better!
• Office chairs – new or “like new” that offer good back support at work-stations for staff and youth.

Re-sale In The Thrift Store

Items that can’t be used in our programs are sometimes still welcome. Odds and ends are being sold in Aunt Leah’s Thrift Store. Profits go right back into our programs!

Items for Special Events

We’re always looking for new items to use at fundraisers and events for youth and families. Prizes for games and at silent auctions are always in short supply. This could be anything from a gift basket to a new car! Gift Certificates are also useful.
