Check out our Amazon Wishlist for current needs at The Cove. All gifts purchased from our wishlist will be delivered directly to The Cove. Some of the common items we accept are nonperishable foods, hygiene items and paper goods.
Due to the limited space at The Cove, we do not normally accept clothing donations. The Cove has a partnership with Things From the Heart at 4014 Bosque Blvd. where Cove youth can use vouchers to shop for clothes, shoes, and other items for free.
