Dear Friends,
Reclaiming Hope works with law enforcement across the nation to provide comfort bags for survivors at the time of their recovery. These backpacks are age and gender specific, designed for toddlers, children, teens and adults. We are dedicated to providing a high level of care for the survivors that we serve. Our greatest prayer is that we provide as much love and comfort as possible.
Already in 2020, we have sent out more bags than expected, and our stock needs to be replenished. We are in need of the following items and quantities to complete our partially filled Restoration Bags. Please consider donating.

Thank you for selecting quality items that speak to a survivor’s worth! Keep in mind that most of them have very little, so we want to make this a special experience for them. Please donate items that you would be proud to give to a love one.
Please note:
We only include new items in our backpacks.
Per government regulations, we cannot include any religious items.
No clothing or hygiene products with a sexually suggestive message or type of clothing (ie. love, XOXO, Caress, passion, sexy, intimate, lace, sheer or bare clothing)
Please keep all tags on items, but mark out prices.
Please email info@reclaiming-hope.org with details of what you plan to donate so we can keep better track of what is still needed.
