Absolutely! Please visit our Donation page for information about monetary donations.

How do I donate items to the Clothing Room?

Bring all donations to 55 West 15th St.

  • Place all donations in the large white bin on the basement level (to the left as you exit the elevator). Please do not leave donations on the floor.
  • All donations MUST be secured in plastic or paper bags. Please do not throw loose items into the bin; they take longer to sort and also make lovely bedding for rodents!
  • See the receptionist for a donation receipt. Please note that Xavier Mission cannot estimate the value of your donation.
  • DURING DECEMBER: Please visit our website for information on our winter Giving Tree collection.

Clothing Drop-Off Times:
Sunday: 8:00am–6:00pm
