The Orange County Rescue Mission is asking the local community to donate items that can help provide these basic necessities for families and their children, including: pack and play crib sheets; Two (2) high chairs; gentle ease infant formula; Eucerin lotion, humidifiers, reams of construction paper, coloring books, children’s books, oriental trading art projects for various holidays (Memorial Day, 4th of July, etc.). Dreft laundry detergent for babies and stickers.
The donation warehouse is open between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Saturday.
Those wishing to donate can drop off these donations at the Orange County Rescue Mission’s Village of Hope located at 1 Hope Drive in the city of Tustin.
