Wish List
Last year alone, the Center for Child Protection provided services to more than 2,000 children in our community. Please donate to the Center's Kid's Closet. Our Kid's Closet provides families with the essentials to help them keep children in a safe and protective home.
Because our kids rarely receive new items and there is a cost associated with cleaning used donations, we only except new items for our children. Many of these kids have never had new clothes or a shiny new toy. Giving them something that they can truly call their own helps boost their self worth and begins to restore hope.
How to Help
- Donate any of the items below to support a family at the Center. Items can be dropped off at the Center.
- Host a Donation Drive! Invite your friends and family to bring any of the items below to your own hosted event.
- Start a drive at work! Ask your co-workers to help the abused and neglected children of Austin by donating to our Kid's Closet.
