In-Kind Giving
The Children's Place Association deeply appreciates the support of our in-kind donors. These donations help offset costs for our organization, allowing funds to be used for much-needed programs and services.
Grocery Store Gift Cards
Grocery store gift cards are distributed to families in the event of an emergency, as well as during the holidays to make their holiday season a little brighter. Gift cards in $20 increments are greatly appreciated. Due to the geographic location of the vast majority of our client base, we kindly ask for Jewel and Aldi gift cards, in lieu of Dominicks, WalMart, etc. Gift cards can be dropped off or mailed to:
