Make a Donation
When you give to Safe Haven, you provide more than shelter, advocacy, education, and support. You help create opportunities for healing, hope, and lasting change. Together, we can prevent relationship abuse and human trafficking, empower survivors on their journey toward healing, and build safer communities where everyone can thrive.

In Honor of Gift
Make a donation in honor of someone else you know. This person could be a Safe Haven supporter, staff member, or simply someone who you think would appreciate being seen. By giving in honor of someone else, we will send them a card to commemorate your gift.
To give in honor of someone, select “I would like to dedicate this gift” when giving online.
Become a Sustainer of Hope
Our Sustainers of Hope are a special group of donors who have committed to making financial gifts monthly. Monthly giving allows Safe Haven to plan for consistency in our budgeting, allowing us to best operate our domestic violence programs and services. As a recipient of the Better Business Bureau’s Torch Award for Ethics, you can be assured that Safe Haven stewards the resources entrusted to us to maximize community impact.
Your monthly gift, no matter the size, provides consistent support for survivors in need and strengthens our community through funding our outreach.

Donation FAQs
We are not able to accept used items of any kind. Safe Haven provides only new items to survivors in an effort to confer dignity to those who have oftentimes had their dignity stripped away by abusive partners. We recommend donating used items to In the Image, a partner of Safe Haven’s that allows individuals in need to “shop” their used items free of charge.
Yes! We collect used cell phones to be recycled; the resulting funds are donated back to Safe Haven.
