Help others find freedom and healing from the agonizing cycle of domestic violence.
Because of COVID-19, donations and charitable revenue from fundraising events are down, but individuals, families, and communities are more vulnerable than ever to the effects of domestic violence. Lockdown measures, school closures, and job losses for many are expected to worsen the situation.
Now, more than ever, we need you. Your gift empowers vulnerable members of your community to find peace, connection, and freedom from domestic abuse.
Financial Donations
When in doubt, consider a financial gift or the donation of gift cards. Financial donations provide the power of choice and ensures we meet the most urgent client needs. Consider gifting a one-time or reoccurring financial donation online here: DONATE TODAY!
In Kind Gifts
Many of the women and children arriving at A Safe Place have few or no personal belongings. We accept some basic supplies and gifts to make them feel at home and to remind them how special they are. Because our needs change, please contact us to arrange a donation. View Our Wishlist
New Beginnings
Your gift of new or gently used housewares, bedding, and small appliances provide a fresh start to an individual or family starting over. Supported entirely by donations, and lead by a team of dedicated volunteers, our New Beginnings program provides clients with a layette of household goods to get them started in a safe, new home of their very own.

How you can help us:
The DO’s and DONT’s of donating …
DO call or email. Our needs change from time to time. Call to find out how what’s needed most.
DON’Tcome to the shelter. Residents need privacy to feel safe. Staff at our Administrative Office (located at 1008 Village Drive, Sherwood Park) can assist you.
DO make an appointment. Our small but mighty team needs a heads-up. Please call to arrange a drop-off time: 780.464.7232
DON’T be discouraged if we can’t accept a donation. Our space, like our team, is small. If we can’t accept a donation, we will do our best to connect you to a partnering community agency who can.
DO remember that new is best. COVID-19 presents new challenges for everyone. This means we may only be able to accept new items.
