Frequently, survivors and their children show up at the Safe House with nothing but the clothes on their back. You can support these families escaping intimate partner abuse by providing a few essential items.

Immediate Need

Immediately needed items will be featured here.

Note: You do not need to call in advance of purchasing immediate need items. If you’re purchasing items from Amazon, make sure to sign up for Amazon Smile and designate CORA your preferred charity. When you do, CORA receives a small percentage of the total of your order at no cost to you! Learn more about Amazon Smile.

Always Needed

CORA’s clients can always use clothing, personal care items, and more. You can help by purchasing items through our Amazon List. Items can then be sent to CORA directly and given to clients in need.
