Item Donation Program

If you would like to donate furniture, small appliances, linens, dishes, etc. go to our FaceBook page and connect with our team. We respond quickly and set up a time to pick up or be available for drop off. We love to take your excess items and give them to a family in need.

What We Do

A Hand Up Erie (AHU) was conceived in 2016 with the vision of providing necessary household items to our community members in need. Since that day, AHU has evidenced its efficacy and ongoing need in the Erie county by providing over 3,500 families with over 40,000 donated and delivered household necessities.
