TRANS LIFELINE
“Trans Lifeline is a national trans-led organization dedicated to improving the quality of trans lives by responding to the critical needs of our community with direct service, material support, advocacy, and education. Our vision is to fight the epidemic of trans suicide and improve overall life-outcomes of trans people by facilitating justice-oriented, collective community aid.”

REPLENISH SF
“ReplenishSF is a nonprofit that collects and distributes much needed toiletries to Domestic Violence shelters all across California. RSF is a project that goes beyond collecting toiletries – it is based on helping women regain confidence, dignity, and rebuild their lives. Domestic Violence survivors arrive at the shelter with nothing but the clothes on their backs, because they had to quickly leave a dangerous situation. DV shelters work day and night to make sure they have supplies for their clients. However, due to funding shortages and overcrowding in shelters, sometimes these needs cannot be met.

100% of all monetary donations will be spent via Target.com to buy toiletries for distant DV shelters. Physical donations are always welcome! All donations will be personally delivered to local DV shelters all across the Bay Area.”

Donations MUST be new/unopened/unused products.
Shelters are always in need of:
-Toothpaste/Toothbrushes
-Shampoo/Conditioner
-Body wash/Bar soap
-Hairbrushes/Combs
-Body/Face lotion
-Razors
-Baby products (hygiene and diapers of all sizes)
-Socks of all sizes
-Bras of all sizes
***Use your imagination! Donate items that you feel like you couldn’t live without***
