Leaving your home, and often times all that you own, can be scary and overwhelming. Individuals fleeing domestic violence many times experience those feelings once they have made that courageous decision to come to Children’s Home Shelter for Family Safety.

To provide those staying in shelter with the essentials they may need, the Lotus Boutique is an important part of the shelter experience. Lotus Boutique is named after the Lotus flower, which symbolizes rebirth.

It is stocked with women’s, men’s and children’s clothing of all sizes and styles. People staying in shelter visit the boutique to select clothing, shoes, jewelry and essentials—at no cost.

We are always looking for donations of gently used, in-season clothing to help fill the boutique and give options to those staying with us.

Up to five bags or boxes of donated items can be accepted at a time. Call 605-338-0116 to schedule a time to drop off your donation.
