Yes, please!
Please see our donations page for more information.

Where and when can I donate to Zharity ?

We run regular collections. Here is how to donate an item. Follow us on our social media to follow announcements of new collections. We’ll announce locations for dropping off donations on the registration form for each collection.

I have things I want to donate but there's no collection right now. Can I still pass along my items for a future collection?

If you have items that we will be collecting in the future, please consider holding onto them. As we do not have a facility to store items. If you cannot hold onto them contact us at info@zharity.ch and we will try to figure out a way to take them in. You can always check here for other options.

I have a lot/big things to donate and I can't get them to the donation site?

If you have a lot of items, or it is a challenge to get the items to the collection site please email us at info@zharity.ch and we will do our best to work together to pick up the items.

Is there anything that I shouldn't donate?

We ask that all items be clean, in working conditions and not damaged (no holes, stains or missing pieces).

We do not accept:

  • Expired Food and medicine 

  • Furniture (e.g. sofas, kitchen tables, children’s bedroom sets)

  • Household Appliances (large or small, including electric mixers, pots and pans, washing machines)

  • Dirty and/or broken items

  • Stained items
