Your Support Changes Lives
At the Sexual Assault Resource Center (SARC), every donation fuels hope, healing, and safety for survivors of sexual violence in our community.
Your gift helps us provide free, confidential support services — 24-hour crisis response, advocacy, prevention education, and survivor-centered programs that build resilience and amplify survivor voices.
Together, we can create a community where survivors are believed, supported, and empowered to heal on their own terms.
Donate today — stand with survivors and help end sexual violence.

Thank you for helping build a safer, more supportive community for survivors — now and always.
Donate New, Unused Hygiene Products
SARC provides survivors with emergency hygiene items such as unopened full- or travel-sized deodorant, shampoo and conditioner, soap or body wash, tampons, pads, and other personal care essentials. Many survivors come to us without access to these basic items — your donation helps restore a sense of dignity, comfort, and care during a vulnerable time.
Items We Need Most
- Full-size or travel-size shampoo & conditioner
- Body wash or soap
- Deodorant
- Toothbrushes & toothpaste
- Menstrual products (tampons & pads)
- Hair brushes & combs
- Lotion and other unscented personal care items
All items must be new and unopened to ensure the health, safety, and respect of survivors.
You can also order items we need most from Amazon and have them shipped directly to SARC.
Donate Gift Cards
Gift cards help us respond quickly to survivors’ urgent needs. Cards to stores like Target, Safeway, and Fred Meyer allow SARC staff to purchase clothing, hygiene products, fuel, food, prescriptions, and other essentials when survivors need them most.
Pre-Paid Cell Phones & Phone cards
Access to a phone can mean safety, connection, and stability for a survivor. Many people we support do not have a working phone or cannot afford to pay their phone bill — which can put them at greater risk and make it harder to access follow-up advocacy, mental health services, or even keep their jobs.
Donating pre-paid cell phones or phone cards helps survivors stay connected to emergency services, supportive advocates, and essential community resources.
New, activated pre-paid phones or pre-paid phone cards from major carriers are most helpful.
Donate Emergency Motel Stays for Survivors
After experiencing sexual assault, some survivors have no safe place to go once they leave the hospital. A 1–2 night emergency motel stay can provide critical safety, privacy, and time to rest and plan next steps.
Your donation of a prepaid motel stay helps survivors who cannot safely return home or need a secure place to stay immediately after receiving medical care and advocacy support.
Prepaid motel gift cards or vouchers for trusted local motel chains are most helpful.
