DONATE GOODS & SERVICES

Drop Off Donations

30,940 neighbors came through our doors last year looking for help. Meeting the needs of our community is made possible through donations. Your gently used or surplus clothing, small household goods, and non-perishable items change lives! Thanks to your donations.

When you give donated items they are used in one of two ways.

1. They go directly to our neighbors in need.
2. We recycle, re-purpose, and reuse through our upscale, up-cycle at our ECHO Thrift store.

You can help by making a personal donation of our most needed items, hosting a donation drive, providing bulk donations, or donating gently used items for the family we serve.

Donate Non-food Items

Step 1: Determine whether or not ECHO needs the items you wish to donate.

We can only make use of items that are new, nearly new or gently used. If you don’t have use for your old, tattered items, it will also burden a person in need. Our mission is to promote dignity among those we serve by providing them the things they need to make a fresh start.
