Providing basic necessities for our clients 24/7/365.
InterAct’s pantry provides the immediate and basic needs of the clients we serve. Our pantry provides these items to our clients, so they do not have to worry about ensuring their basic needs (food, clothing, hygiene products, cleaning supplies, etc.) are met while under our direct care.
Survivors of domestic/intimate partner violence can be from any gender identity or sexual orientation. Our focus is on ensuring inclusive representation of gender-based violence (GBV) survivors across diverse gender, racial, ethnic, religious, and sexual orientation spectrums.
Thank you for donating these in-kind items as an individual, a group, or through a food drive. We cannot support our clients without YOU.
Below is a complete list of needed items. There is also an Amazon list of urgently needed items.
If you are unsure of how, or what to donate, please contact us at info@interactofwake.org.
Did you know that when people arrive at InterAct and are in a crisis, they may be alone or with their children? As they’re leaving a domestic violence situation, they may only arrive with the clothes on their backs and whatever they can carry.
Last year, InterAct provided emergency shelter for 204 people, an increase from the previous year. InterAct provides them with food, emergency shelter, counselors, and support.
We ensure they have what they need to feel safe in these critical moments. YOUR donations allow us to do that!
