Donate Hygiene Items & Make a Difference
Make an impact this week by donating to YWCA Spokane!
Our Domestic Violence Safe Shelter is in need of home cleaning and hygiene supplies to help survivors live healthy, clean, and safe lives. Providing cleaning and hygiene supplies to our agency makes a huge impact on the health and safety of those we serve. Please consider donating as part of our SundayImpact campaign this week!
Help us with Spring Cleaning: Donate Cleaning Supplies
We are currently asking for cleaning supply donations to our Domestic Violence Safe Shelter. Cleaning supplies will allow women and families residing in our shelter to live healthy, comfortable lives! Help our Shelter jump into Spring Cleaning. We invite the community to drop-off their tax-deductible donations of seed packets to YWCA Spokane’s office at 930 N. Monroe St, Spokane, WA 99201. Thank you for your support!

More Ways to Give
Looking to donate other used items?
Check out these awesome places to recycle worn denim, used furniture, and many other items that are not the best fit for YWCA Spokane’s programs and services.
- Blue Jeans Go Green: This program collects denim across the country and upcycles it into UltraTouchTMDenim Insulation, providing a portion to communities in need each year.
- The Salvation Army: Schedule a free pick-up to your door too! The Salvation Army asks that communities donate before throwing away goods.
- Terracycle Fabrics and Clothing Zero Waste Box: Purchase a box to fill with clothing and fabric to ship to Terracycle to be repurposed.
- The Bra Recyclers: An organization that will find a way to recycle, reuse or repurpose bras. You can find a drop-off station or mail old bras directly to them.
- Council for Textile Recycling: Find clothing donation drop-offs and textile recycling resources all across the US. Keep in mind the donation suggestions might not recycle “unwearable” textiles. I recommend calling the individual recommended locations before making a drop-off.
- GemText: Free textile recycling based right here in the Northwest! Support a regional business and recycle your goods.
- Secondary Materials and Recycled Textiles: An online platform that will help you find the nearest textile recycling outlets near you.
- H&M, Don’t Let Fashion Go To Waste – You can drop off your textiles from any brand, in any condition, at any H&M store globally and they’ll recycle it for you.
- Nike, Reuse-A-Shoe: Nike collects old athletic shoes from any brand that they grind up and use to create courts, fields, tracks, and playgrounds.
Thank you to our donors!
