Help Support Hays House
Personal Items
Often times, the circumstances in which youth arrive at Hays House are difficult. Without a stable home, kids rarely have many belongings of their own. When provided with some of their basic needs like personal care items and their own pillow, kids begin to feel like they matter. Something many take for granted– like enough socks for the week – becomes a small token that reminds them of the love, care, and healing they deserve.
Take a look at the type of items we regularly need at Hays House. We appreciate your generosity and will use the funds for what is most needed at the time. Thank you for showing these kids that you care.
Games & Electronics
Creating a comfortable and stable home-like environment is crucial for the youth at Hays House. Many of the kids have lived in a stressful, near-constant survival mode. Providing items such as Nintendo Switch consoles and video games give the kids a chance to unwind with each other—and the chance to just be a kid. From card games with peers to decompressing with their favorite music on Bluetooth headphones, kids get the opportunity to begin feeling safe, supported, and at ease.
