Donate Gently Used Children's Clothing & Toys and help support Kind Works
“For more than 26 years, we’ve had the privilege of serving this incredible community, and it has truly been one of the greatest joys of my life as the owner of Once Upon A Child Danbury. What makes our store special isn’t just what we sell—it’s the relationships we’ve built with local families, businesses, and organizations who share a deep commitment to supporting one another. Together, we’ve created something meaningful that extends far beyond our doors.
One partnership that means so much to us is our continued support of Kind Works. Through the generosity of our customers, we collect donations in-store to help advance their mission of spreading kindness throughout our community. Every small act adds up, and we’re proud to be a place where compassion and connection grow right alongside our business. Supporting organizations like Kind Works is simply one way we can give back to the community that has supported us for more than two decades—and we’re grateful every single day to be part of it”. ~ Diana Maunsell
Turn Your Donations into Kindness
Have gently used children's clothing, shoes, toys, books, or baby gear that your family has outgrown? Your donations can help support Kind Works while giving these items a second life.
We've partnered with Once Upon a Child in Danbury to make donating easy. Simply bring your gently used children's items to:
Once Upon a Child
67 Newtown Road
Danbury, CT
When you drop off your items, just let the staff know your donation is for Kind Works. Once Upon a Child will evaluate the items and make a monetary donation directly to Kind Works based on the accepted items.
Every donation helps fund our kindness education programs, community art projects, volunteer opportunities, and initiatives that inspire kindness throughout our communities.
Be a Kindness Hero — Start a Donation Drive!
Want to make an even bigger impact? Organize a clothing and toy drive at your school, workplace, neighborhood, place of worship, or community organization. It's a simple way to bring people together while supporting local families and helping Kind Works continue its mission.
Whether you donate a few items or organize an entire collection drive, you're helping spread kindness one donation at a time.
Thank you to Diana Maunsell and the entire Once Upon a Child Danbury team for their generosity and partnership in making this program possible.
Donate with Purpose. Support Kindness. Inspire Change.
