​​​​
You can also explore the items below on our ALWAYS Wish List from our Amazon, Walmart and Target registries. We are ALWAYS in need of these items!
Find and click on the "Buy Now" button for items that you would like to purchase. You can then view it on the actual store website.
If you have an account with any of these sites, you can easily sign in to use it and ship to your home, if you prefer, and then you can drop it off at our location (7801 Thompson Run Rd., Pgh, PA. 15237, Tues-Fri 9 am to 1 pm). If not, you can also shop without an account. The items will be shipped automatically to THRIVEPittsburgh at the above address.
These items are always needed! You may donate by shopping online on Amazon or in a store of your choice. Items do not have to be identical to those here, but all items must be new.
