Thrift Store Donations
Donations happily accepted
Overwhelmed with all that excess stuff in your closet or garage? Looking for a way to help your community?
Donate what no longer works for you but could work wonders for someone else. Your donation to Idaho Youth Ranch thrift stores can directly impact the future of Idaho's kids.
We currently do not offer an at-home pickup service. All donations will need to be dropped off at an Idaho Youth Ranch donation drop-off site.
Why donate to Idaho Youth Ranch Thrift Stores?
Idaho Youth Ranch is a non-profit 501(c)(3) agency that offers emergency shelter, residential care, youth and family therapy, job readiness training, adoption services, and more for kids and their families.
Our network of thrift stores help fund our youth programs and services. By donating your gently used items to our thrift stores, you are providing affordable goods to the community as well as funding our programs and services that provide hope, healing, and resilience for Idaho's kids.
Your donation might be eligible for a federal and state tax deduction PLUS an additional Idaho state tax credit for 50% of the donated item's value.
