What kind of items can I donate?
We accept and distribute all contemporary clothing in excellent condition including children's, women's and men's clothing. Additionally, we accept shoes, all outerwear, linens, towels, tablecloths, handbags and Purim costumes.
What condition does the clothing need to be in?
Yad leah’s primary goal is to give with dignity. Your donated clothing will be filling someone’s closet. The clothing therefore needs to be a contemporary style in excellent condition that families in Israel will feel proud to wear.
Do you accept books, toys or household goods?
Unfortunately, at this time we are not able to accept these items

Are there any special instructions that I need to know?
