Thank you for all donations designated for the victims of the Meadowbrook fire. While we are no longer accepting donations specifically for Meadowbrook families, we are able to accept donations for our regular program, accessible to all clients. For more information, please visit the menu under "How to Help" at the top of this page. Thank you for your support!

How to help

12 families from the Meadowbrook apartments recently lost their homes and belongings due to a serious fire. The Northampton Survival Center was one of several local agencies able to step in to assist these families. Through a generous donation, we were able to store many donations of clothing, household items, and the like, in two PODS on-site for families to shop in. Many thanks to local donors, and the Benjamin Company, for generous donations to assist these families.
