We suggest you reach out to the following organizations. Some only accept donations certain days and may have too many now but could use them later in the year.
- Adult incontinence supplies like pads and diapers – local nursing homes or Mitzvah Circle which runs a diaper bank. Mitzvah Circle also accepts infant diapers and clothing. If you or someone you know is having problems affording these items, you can contact Mitzvah Circle.

- Medical equipment (wheelchairs, walkers, beds, etc) Abilatool -they only take what they can store so please contact them first. You may need to hold onto an item until it is needed. They are also a great source if you need something. Warning – Medicare only supplies you with one of any health aid. So if the wheel chair, cane or walker is yours and came from Medicare, you should hang onto it if at all possible.
