Why do donors choose Shortage?

Clare P.

«Yesterday I used Shortage to donate items to a homeless shelter in my hometown and a school located in another state. I love knowing that the things I sent are truly needed, and I can’t wait for my video receipt!»

Stephan from Oregon

«The website is excellent. Everyone should be very proud of how Shortage is helping people.»

Lisa N.

«I feel a sense of connection with the people I support and that Shortage gives an opportunity to help in a manner that feels more personal to me. Shortage’s mission is one that I am proud to support.»
