Donation Drop Off is held the First Thursday of each month from 11AM-2PM and the Third Thursday of each month from 4-7PM at Sunnyside Centenary United Methodist Church, 3520 SE Yamhill St. Enter the building on 35th Ave.
Please note: we do not accept any used clothing, used toys or large furniture items.
The generous support of community donations makes our programs possible. The current state of the economy means that costs for providing food and clothing to the survivors and their children living in our shelter have risen dramatically. If you’re interested in hosting a donation drive at your school, office or place of worship, please check the wish lists below to see what we need most!
Tri-Met bus tickets are one of our biggest monthly expenses. If you purchased a Chinook Book this year, there are bus tickets in the back of your book. Or consider purchasing a booklet of Adult or Youth 2-Zone tickets the next time you’re at Fred Meyers or Safeway. Donating them to Raphael House will help defray transportation costs for the families we serve.
