Donate Items to Support Our Mission
At White Bird Clinic, we are grateful for the generous support from our community. Your donations help us provide critical resources and support to individuals and families in need. We accept a wide range of items, but we do ask that all donations be dropped off in a way that ensures they are used to their full potential. Please read through the important donation guidelines below to ensure a smooth and impactful donation experience.
How to Donate: Please Don’t Leave Items Unattended
To ensure your donation reaches the right place, please do not leave items unattended outside. Donations left out front can be scattered throughout the neighborhood, creating unnecessary mess and making the items unusable for our clients. It’s very important to arrange a drop-off with a staff member before bringing any items.
