Update on Donations
Elko Committee Against Domestic Violence also known as Harbor House would like to thank the community for their support throughout the years with donations of clothing, furniture, and household items. However, due to budget cuts, the organization no longer has the ability to store these items. Therefore, CADV is accepting limited donations effective immediately. Harbor House can only accept donations of food, pantry items, hygiene products, and paper products. Gently-used furniture and household goods must be pre-approved by staff and delivered by the donor. Pickup is no longer available. Sadly, clothing can no longer be accepted unless new or specific to the wish list, available at the office and on the website, www.elkoharborhouse.com . To arrange donations or for more information, please call 738-6524. On behalf of the victims and their children, thank you for your understanding and continuing support.
