Gently used in-kind donations help The Hope Center meet the needs of many hurting people who come to us for help. Items donated may be sold in our thrift stores in Hagerstown and Chambersburg. We keep our prices low to help people on a tight budget. Sales generated from items sold in our stores help to keep our programs and services free for our guests. We also give away many items for free to individuals and families in need. Thanks to your generous donations (food, clothing, shoes, furniture, etc.) we can continue to meet the needs of those in need.
