empower the mentally ill to lead happy, productive and meaningful lives. All
donations, both large and small, directly impact our efforts to make a
difference in someone's life by providing our clients with a safe place to live

In-Kind Donation
Since our founding in 1979, the Alcott Center has depended on the generosity of
the community and local businesses to contribute products and personal property
to our clients and program services.
In-kind contributions have provided our clients with the extras they cannot
afford while enabling the Alcott Center to contain operating costs.
We especially need:
New:
• Hair products (combs, brushes, hair dryers, shampoo, cream rinse, gel or hair
spray)

• Clothing (socks, t-shirts, sweaters, shirts and slacks for men and women in all
sizes but particularly larger sizes)
