We are a 100% volunteer-driven organization dedicated to ensuring that children and their mothers have the household essentials they need to rebuild their lives after domestic abuse.

Felicia’s Donation Closet was nominated as finalist for two In Business Magazine Awards: Nonprofit of the Year and Nonprofit Financial Leadership, Executive Excellence, Finance and Technology. Our founder and CEO, Felicia Raye Diny, was selected as a Brava Magazine Women to Watch for 2026.

Felicia’s Donation Closet is dedicated to helping women and children transition into safe, stable homes by providing essential furniture and household items as they rebuild their lives free from abuse.

Since its founding, the organization has served 636 women and children and counting. This year’s Casino Night aims to raise $60,000 to continue delivering critical resources, comfort, and hope to families starting over.
