In-Kind Donations

Donations from community members, organizations, and businesses are what allow us to continue to provide free, accessible health care to people in need.

You can donate supplies that you already have, or buy us items directly from our Gift Hero wishlist.

Supplies may be dropped off at our reception desk:

Mon-Fri: 6pm - 9pm
Sat: 11am - 2pm
Sun: 4pm - 7pm

To coordinate donating supplies, receive a tax receipt, or inquire about items that are not on our list, email funding@berkeleyfreeclinic.org or call 510-548-2570. Please make every attempt to not leave us with supplies we cannot use. Those donations end up incurring significant disposal costs to us.
