Donations of gently-used goods are what make the Giving Factory possible, and make it so efficient and effective. We accept your donations of new and gently-used clothing, shoes, books, baby items, toys and school supplies for kids age 0 to 12.
Wondering what to do with those clothes that your children barely wore, before they outgrew them? Want a place to recycle that stroller or those children’s books so that other kids can enjoy them, too? Working with our partner social-service organizations, Cradles to Crayons gives your gently-used good” to deserving children in your area.
We can only accept quality items—goods that “our” children will be proud to own, and which will help make them feel valued. Help us by donating only clothes that are in good condition, toys that are complete, baby equipment that is safe and sound, school supplies that are unopened, and so on.
For more information about what we need and what we can accept, please review our donation quality standards. Please note: due to recent drop side crib recalls, we are no longer accepting any cribs.
