In-kind donations
We accept many in-kind donations at Sorrentino’s Compassion House, including gifts for our guests such as quilts, knitted hats, wellness boxes, pantry items, and coffee supplies, as well as everyday essentials, like toilet paper.
Support the House with everyday items
In-kind donations help offset operational costs and ensure the House remains stocked with the everyday items guests rely on throughout their stay. These contributions allow more resources to go directly toward supporting women travelling to Edmonton for cancer treatment.
