Wish List

Memory_Hutch1In-kind donations are important to The Sharing Place because they help keep our costs down (and we make new friends).

The items listed below are ones we use regularly. The list changes constantly. In the past, we have received wonderful "random" donations that have not appeared on our wish list. If you have something that needs a good home, please run it by us even if it is not on our list. We also have a secret dream wish list that we reveal from time to time and would be happy to share upon request.

All donations are important to us and are acknowledged in writing for tax purposes and to express our appreciation.

The Sharing Place Experience

My daughter has been better able to communicate and interact with her teacher, Mom and brother. She is more able to express herself. She is able to talk openly about loved ones that have passed on. I am able to accept my feelings and her feelings as they come and go.
