We are grateful to those who bring the much-needed supplies that our agency uses to help take care of the needs of our homeless pregnant women and their children. You are a blessing.
In addition to new items listed below, we also are very grateful for gently used baby/toddler clothes, maternity clothes, baby equipment and small household items. If you have large items such as furniture to donate, we ask that you contact Barnabas Network who we partner with. We just do not have the storage space for these type of items.
If you are donating used items, please only donate things that have been washed and are in good condition. We do not have the resources to spend time cleaning and disposing of dirty, broken or worn out items. Thank you in advance for your understanding.We are blessed with many people wanting to make Room At The Inn for our moms and babies, who will continue to have a variety of everyday baby and maternity needs. If you are looking for a way to make a difference in their lives, gift cards to places that carry these items (such as Target, Walmart, and Amazon) are very much appreciated. They can be mailed to our PO Box 13936, Greensboro, NC 27415. Donations can also be made directly at roominn.org/donate. Thank you for your continued generosity.
Supplies may be dropped off at 734 Park Avenue, Greensboro, Monday – Friday, 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. Because of the busy schedule of both the residents and the staff at the Maternity Home (participating in ongoing life skills classes and staff meetings), we ask that you call the office at 336-996-3788 to make an appointment before dropping off supplies after those hours or on the weekends. Thank you and God bless you for making “room at the inn.”
