Donations of Goods and Items

Making an in-kind donation — a contribution of goods — is a great way to support our mission of serving the vulnerable in our community. To ensure we best meet the needs of our clients, we have specific guidelines about what we can accept. Have a question about a specific item, contact us at giving@cc-dc.org.

Items We Can’t Accept
