How you can help

Clothing Donations

Donations of men’s clothing, footwear and coats are collected year round. Donations can be dropped off at the Binghamton YMCA Security Desk

Hygiene Drive

A shower and a fresh shave can make you feel instantly better when times are tough. That is why the Y provides hygiene products to the men as they arrive at the YMCA. Donations of hygiene products are collected year round. Donations can be dropped off at both YMCA locations.
