THE GIVING HEART - RICHMOND, VIRGINIA |

| The Giving Heart is grateful for the generous spirit that so many in our community exhibit. Monetary donations are used for acquiring items that are not donated through other sources and to provide for non-tangible needs such as facility rental, liability insurance and security for our Community Thanksgiving Feast. For those who wish to donate supplies and other in-kind donations, we offer up identified needs below. Feel free to contact us or call (804) 749-4726. If you wish to donate something that is not on our list, please let us know and we'll be happy to suggest other agencies if we are unable to use the items ourselves. |
