*We have a couple suggestions if you find that Broad Street Ministry does not need the item(s) that you’d like to donate.*

1) Donate your items to a secondhand store. Goodwill provides employment assistance to people in need and Philly AIDS Thrift offers over $100K of grant support to community nonprofits. 

2) Directly give your items to a person in need at freecycle.org
