Angel View opens for donation dropoff
Touchless transaction for donated items at all Angel View stores. Drive in, drop off, donate now!
Have you been cleaning out your closet during the COVID crisis?
You downsized, time to donate to Angel View
All Angel View stores will be accepting donations beginning Tuesday, 5/19/2020 from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and will be available daily until resale stores reopen to full operation.
For the safety of staff and donors Angel View has created a “touchless transaction process” and will be emailing receipts to donors.
The COVID19 pandemic has greatly impacted Angel View's overall budget because stores were closed. Proceeds from the stores help defray costs of operating Angel View’s 19 residences and programs for children and adults with disabilities. And although the retail operation was shuttered and employees were furloughed, Angel View dedicated and essential healthcare staff continue to work to keep clients healthy and safe at home.

All residents have sheltered at home and have been under Angel View care 24-7 with the staff following strict guidelines. The annual Prom was cancelled, along with Spring Fun Days in Joshua Tree and outings to baseball games. However, we are happy to report that all of our clients are 100 percent virus-free.
Our Outreach programs for families with children with disabilities have implemented telehealth conferencing for more than 300 children at home with our bilingual case managers. All of Angel View's Outreach services are available free and the program continues through generous grants and the local philanthropic community.

All 20 resale locations and clearance centers, with full staff returning to work, will open pending state and county orders.
Home pickups will also resume at that time.
Hopefully you’ll be back shopping soon.

For now, Angel View also created an online site with some thrift store finds.
