In-Kind Donations
Our three transitional houses are home to 9 families at a time. During their stay at the Dorothy Day House, and even after moving out, families have access to free hygiene items, cleaning supplies, bedding, clothing, food, and more. Upon move-out, we give families household items and furniture for their new house. All items are provided by supporters like yourself and are essential to our operation.
Donation Drive
Interested in organizing a donation drive at your school, office, neighborhood, or church? We’ll help you plan a drive that meets your goals and supports families in need. Use our Donation Drive Guide for step-by-step ideas and materials, or email office@dorothydaymemphis.org to get personalized support and tips to ensure your drive’s success. Together, we can make a meaningful difference for families facing homelessness.
Wishlist Wednesday
Every Wednesday, we update our Amazon wish list with our highest-need items and then publish it on social media. However, you can access and shop this wish list any day of the week! Click the link below to shop for our most needed items and easily ship them right to our door. If you would prefer to shop at a local retailer and drop off the items, contact Sophia Rall.
