Material Donations

Women on the Rise operates a fabulous, free boutique which we call 'The Distro Room'. This service is volunteer-run and open to all women and people of other marginalized genders.

Please consider donating your gently-used clothes, shoes, and outerwear for babies, kids, and adults. Cribs, strollers, pack & plays, and other supplies for young children are always appreciated, and diapers and wet wipes are in high demand! We also accept toys that are in good working condition.

To address our mandate of encouraging accessibility and breaking down barriers of isolation, we are now accepting donations of tech devices like phones, tablets, and laptops that will be distributed on a needs-based priority system.

Donations can be made from 10 am to 1 pm on Mondays and Wednesdays. Please leave us a voice message or email in advance if you need to pass by outside of regular donation hours. Thank you for your generosity!

Volunteering with Women on the Rise is a great way to make a difference in your community. We are always grateful for folks to help us with:

Greeting visitors and inviting them to join our programs and events

Sorting and organizing our clothing donations

Translating documents from English to French and other languages

Providing translation services for participants during activities and individual consultations, either in person or over the phone (some languages we need help with include Haitian Creole, Spanish, Turkish, and Persian)
