We're reaching out to our incredible community to ask for your continued support. This past year, our Men's Detox Facility underwent a major transformation. We moved from our previous location on Broadway, where we could house up to 80 men, to our new building at Recovery on Redwood now allows us to accommodate up to 140 men, significantly expanding our capacity to support those on their journey to recovery.

Despite this growth, we face an ongoing challenge: men’s clothing remains one of the least donated items, even though it’s one of the most needed. As the temperatures drop, this need becomes even more urgent. These items provide the dignity and warmth our clients deserve. Now, more than ever, we need your help to replenish our inventory and prepare for the colder months ahead.

What We Need:

  • Pants (all sizes)
  • Shirts (all sizes)
  • Shorts (all sizes)
  • Shoes (all sizes)
  • New underwear (all sizes)
  • Seasonal items

How You Can Help:

You can make a direct impact by donating new or gently used pants, shirts, shorts, shoes, and new underwear. These contributions will help ensure our clients have the essentials they need as they work toward better futures.

If you're unable to donate in person, we also have an Amazon Wishlist. By purchasing items directly from the wishlist, you can support our Men's Detox Facility from wherever you are.

Drop-off Locations:

  • Recovery on Redwood: 1875 S Redwood Rd, Salt Lake City, UT 84104 (Donations accepted Monday, Wednesday, and Friday)

Donation Appointment Sign-Ups:

To make your donation experience seamless, please visit our website and click on the volunteer tab to sign up for a donation appointment. Every piece of clothing donated goes directly to those in need, making an immediate difference in someone’s life.
