In-Kind Giving
Give What's Needed. Help Make an Impact.
There are many ways to support Blessing Our Women, Inc. — and not every gift has to be monetary. Donations of new supplies, program materials, event items, participant resources, and other needed goods help BOW serve women and girls while directing more of our financial resources toward programs, services, education, and community impact.
Small Items. Meaningful Support. Collective Impact.

BOW events, outreach activities, workshops, and community initiatives may require various supplies. For large events such as Purple Passion, event-specific needs lists are published separately.
Programs Need Infrastructure, Too.

Host a BOW Donation Drive
Turn Your Network Into Impact
Businesses, churches, schools, social clubs, community organizations, workplaces, and individuals can organize approved collection drives benefiting BOW. Possible drives might support PURPLE Girls, program supplies, personal-care essentials, survivor support, back-to-school needs, holiday initiatives, event needs, or another current BOW priority.
Before announcing your drive:
Organizations should receive BOW approval for the drive, requested items, dates, use of BOW's name/logo, promotional materials, and donation-delivery arrangements before announcing publicly.
A Note on Dignity
BOW is selective about what we accept and how we distribute donated items. The women and girls we serve deserve thoughtful, appropriate support — not whatever happens to be available. Every item on this list was chosen because it serves a real, current need. Thank you for giving with intention.
Other Ways to Give
In-kind donations are just one way to support BOW. You can also give financially, volunteer your time, sponsor a participant, or become a community partner.
