The donation drive so far has collected a total of 50 different items, over 943 products. Some of the businesses kept the boxes to collect more.

Some of the items provided are:
Garbage bags, toilet paper, laundry detergent, toothbrushes, feminine products, chap-stick, disinfectant wipes, vinyl gloves, bathroom cleaner, shampoo and more. Cleaning items are also always needed.
