In-Kind Gifts

Tips for Giving Donations:

  • Please ask yourself before giving an item: “Would I wear/use this myself or give it to a friend?"
  • We can not accept open containers/packages of food or out dated food for use in our Food Bank.  In addition, open packages of medications or healthcare items can not be accepted.
  • We cannot use gifts that are torn, stained, broken or otherwise in need of repair.
  • We no longer can accept donations of large appliances.
  • We generally do not accept donations of other large items such as furniture.  Donations of such items can only be accepted if they are in excellent condition, there is an immediate need for the items, and are from a financial donor living nearby the Mission.  Please be advised that our driver may decline a donation upon inspection if it is found not to be in excellent condition.  Please call (724) 652-4321 to determine if there is an immediate need for an item that you wish to donate.
  • We only accept donation of vehicle(s) if the City Rescue Mission can place them into immediate service within the ministry.  Vehicles must have current inspection and be in good working order.  No vehicles can be accepted if they are in need of repair.  Please call Kevin Green at (724) 652-4321 to inquire if your vehicle is eligible for donation.  Vehicles not eligible for donation directly to the City Rescue Mission may be eligible for donation to Cars 4 Charities.  Any net proceeds from the sale of vehicles by Cars 4 Charities can then be designated to the City Rescue Mission.  Check out their web site for more information - www.cars4charities.org
