Any personal care items must be in unused, sealed condition
We are currently in need of shampoo, conditioner, lotions, and face soaps
Please no medications, even over-the-counter
Please call ahead to let us know that you are coming and what you are bringing. The business office has limited space, and the list of what we are in need of is always changing.

Donation Requests

HDVS has a voucher program with Lots 4 Tots. When community members donate nearly new or gently used clothing to Lots 4 Tots, they may ask that the value of the donation be added to HDVS' account. We can then give vouchers to our clients and they can shop for themselves. This provides a great way for survivors to exercise their independence and for donors to contribute directly to our clients' well-being.
Physical Donations
When deciding to leave, pets can become a major complication for survivors. Boarding their animals can quickly become very expensive, and this may convince a survivor that if they leave, then they must risk the well-being of their pets.
Jennifer Bushnell was a woman from Humboldt County who was tragically murdered by her partner in 2007. Her beloved dog, Gucci, was with her at the time. To honor her memory, Jennifer's parents have established the Jennifer Bushnell Memorial Fund, which provides financial assistance for survivors so they can board their pets while they are in emergency shelter.
To donate to this fund, please send checks or money orders to:
Jennifer Bushnell Memorial Fund
c/o Humboldt Domestic Violence Services
P.O. Box 969
Eureka, CA 95502
You may also note "Jennifer Bushnell Memorial Fund" in the memo section of your check, and we will add your donation to the fund.
