Thank you for your desire to help Hopeful Horizons’ assisting victims of child abuse, domestic violence and sexual assault. We do not accept used clothing, used toys, hotel toiletries or queen/king size bedding.
However, we partner with CAPA's Closet so that our clients are able to shop at no charge! The Bargain Box, Church Mouse and Calhoun Station provide support to Hopeful Horizons through grants. We urge you to take your used clothing and toy donations to those organizations and know that you are still helping Hopeful Horizons assist victims. The list below includes examples of some of our most needed items. Please call us at 843-524-2256 if you have something you think we might use that is not on this list. Thank you!
Furnish a Future
Furnish a Future is a new outreach program for Hopeful Horizons, led by a dedicated volunteer group. The program will create safe and joyful spaces for women who are starting a new life after surviving domestic violence. In many cases, women and their children need to rebuild from the ground up and furnishing their new home with love will provide them with a positive start on their journey. Furnish a Future will collect donated items specific for each client.
Contact Rebecca Jones if you'd like to get involved in Furnish a Future or be added to the the distribution list of needed items for each project.
