About the donation drive

At Andrew's Pro Clean, we believe in giving back to the communities that have supported us.

After having the opportunity to provide cleaning services at Leo A. Hoffmann Center, Andrew and I felt moved to do something more for the young people they serve. We reached out to the center to ask how we could help, and from that conversation, Hearts for Hoffmann was created.

For three weeks, we're inviting our community to come together and donate items that will provide comfort, recreation, creativity, and opportunities for connection for the boys in the center's residential treatment program.

Rather than collecting monetary donations, we're asking community members to contribute physical items from the center's wish list. Whether it's a board game, a warm blanket, art supplies, or a basketball, every contribution is appreciated.

  • Comfort

    Warm blankets, socks, pajamas and everyday essentials.

  • Recreation

    Board games, card games, sports balls and ping-pong.

  • Creativity

    Sketchbooks, paints, clay, LEGO and craft kits.

  • Connection

    Games and activities to share with each other.
