Thank you for assisting with the needs of the families we serve and for your support of Safe Haven Family Shelter! We can ONLY accept donations that are listed on our current needs list.
Items can be purchased and shipped to Safe Haven or drop offs can be scheduled by emailing [email protected].
** We CANNOT accept the following items: clothing, TV’s, used mattresses, used bedding or travel/trial sized items. **
** We are NOT currently accepting furniture donations. Please consider donating furniture (and any other items we cannot accept) to ThriftSmart and indicate the items are in support of Safe Haven Family Shelter. This helps us earn credits that families can use to purchase items they need
Our Partnership with Thrift Smart:
If you have items to donate that we cannot accept, please consider donating them to Thrift Smart located at 4890 Nolensville Road. When donating, please say it is in support of Safe Haven Family Shelter. This helps us earn credits that families can use to purchase the items they need.
ABOUT ITEM DONATIONS:
Safe Haven accepts item donations of items that families can use either in the shelter program or as they move into their own housing. We provide shelter baskets and move in baskets with needed items. You will see noted in our list of current needs that we request only new, unopened items.
We CANNOT accept the following items: furniture, clothing, TV’s, used mattresses, used bedding, or trial or travel sized items. It is important, due to limited storage space and our specific needs, to email us at [email protected] if you have a question about whether we can take an item. If you have items that we cannot accept, we encourage you to donate the items to ThriftSmart and indicate the items are in support of Safe Haven Family Shelter. This helps us earn credits that families can use to purchase items they need
In addition to our current needs list, you can also view our Amazon wish list, Target wish list, or Walmart wish list for examples of the types of items we need. You can purchase items from these wish lists or simply use it as a guide for the types of items we need. The wish lists are not meant to be brand-specific.
It is great when donors purchase items online and have them sent to our shelter. We also accept donations in person (drop off) by appointment only. This ensures someone is present and can assist you in accepting the donations.
