THE Donation Center and DONATION Truck

This Is Where We Receive Donations For The Thrift Store!

We operate a centralized hub, called The Donation Center, where we accept non-food, in-kind donations. That means you can donate your goods… to do good!

Ways To Donate

Donations taken to The Donation Center and Donation Bins are then sorted and distributed to ERM’s Thrift Store.

All of our store’s net revenue as well as all of The Donation Center’s bulk sale proceeds go directly back to financially support our daily programs and services.
