I have had several people ask me about donation location ideas here in the North Tampa area…You have NO IDEA HOW HAPPY THIS MAKES ME!!! Yes, coupons are a wonderful thing to help save our families money – but you know that each week there are items that we can get for cheap, free, or even with overage. If you need those items – GREAT – if you don’t I always ask that you consider donating them. There are people everywhere that could use an extra hand every now and then, so why not help when we can?
I think it’s a beautiful concept and I LOVE hearing that others are doing this too. Honestly, it makes me tear up…If we all just took an extra 10 minutes a week (that couple minutes in the store – that couple minutes to drop off the items) can you imagine the lives we could affect?!
These are two places I go to regularly:
Oasis Pregnancy Center – Land O Lakes – I donate baby coupons (there are so many now available on Coupons.com), baby food, and feminine items here
Suncoast Harvest Food Bank – Land O Lakes – I donate everything else here – food, vitamins, personal care items
Here are a few more:
Lutz Pregnancy Center
The Spring – Tampa, FL – Women’s Shelter
Feeding America – Tampa Bay – Food Bank
Kaye Prox Food Bank – Tampa – 33615
Metropolitan Ministries – Tampa – 33602
Village Presbyterian Church – Carrollwood – drop box by Church Office – Thanks Jenni
Also, ask your local church if they have a member that is in need of any extra help at the moment – Cherylann e-mailed me earlier and that’s where her extra stockpile is going this week.
If you know of others or go to others – PLEASE leave them in the comments section here so that I can add them to this post and so that others can see them too!
Thank you!
Village Presbyterian Church in Carrolwood (by cultural center) also takes donations. Drop box in the church office.
Is there any way to make this list a permanent reference list on your website like maybe across the top or something? 🙂 Thx Cherylann
If you click on Giving Back to the Community – It will always be listed there. Does that help?
