The Hope Shoppe

We are happy to share the exciting new name and design of our donation center that has been operating at Safe Futures in New London for over 40 years! Our dedicated staff submitted numerous name suggestions describing what our donation center means to them, the community, and most importantly to the victims and survivors of abuse that we serve.

Nearly every name submission included the word “hope” which is why with much consideration, we are happy to announce the new name: The Hope Shoppe. The Hope Shoppe remains true to our mission serving clients of Safe Futures impacted by domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, trafficking, child abuse and elder abuse in southeastern Connecticut.

January 2025 Update:

Please note that we will not be accepting new donations until Tuesday, January 14th, 2025 as we transition over from the holiday season. Beginning January 14th, we will only be accepting new and very gently used items, limited to 2 bags per donor. Our Hope Shoppe hours for donation drop-off will be: Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10am-2pm at 16 Jay Street, New London, CT. Thank you for thinking of Safe Futures and we appreciate your support!
