Client Support Material Needs

URGENT NEED: Our annual School Supplies Distribution for our Earn While You Learn clients is coming up Tuesday, August 3! We are in need of the items listed below. School supply donations can be brought June 14-August 2 on Mondays from 11:30AM-3:30 PM and Thursdays 4-7PM to our Donation Drop Off next to the Client Support Entrance.

What does Bridgehaven currently need? These items benefit our clients who come regularly for our classes or who come in for one-time emergency assistance.

• Peanut butter
• Jelly
• Pancake mix
• Syrup
• Toilet paper
• Laundry soap
• Dish soap
• Shampoo
• Body wash
• Carseat blankets*

Is there anything Bridgehaven won’t take? Based on inventory and regulations we are required to follow, there are some items we are unable to take. (At this time, this includes most baby blankets except what is listed above.) Please call us at 319-364-8967 if you have any questions or are unsure whether we will take a specific item.

Please also note that there are certain items we will accept at our resale store, Treasures Quality Resale Shoppe that we can’t accept at Bridgehaven. All proceeds from sales at Treasures directly benefit the work we do at Bridgehaven, and our Earn While You Learn families are able to shop at Treasures as a part of their earned benefits in our program. Click here for the list of donations we accept at Treasures.

Where should I take my donations? Donations should be taken to our donation drop-off by our Client Support Entrance. Please ring the doorbell to alert our team to assist you. See below for a map for additional directions.
