Donate Items
During drop-in, youth participants are invited to check out & take what they need from the resources Odyssey has in-center, such as the clothing closet, snack kitchen, hygiene supply closet, and more. We accept donations year-round to keep the drop-in center stocked. Donations can be dropped off during our drop-in program hours (MWF 3-8PM and Thurs 5-9PM). Some common needs include individual snack foods, ready-to-make/ready-to-eat meals, gluten-free items, deodorant, and new undergarments of any size and style.
