“The Loan Closet is a really great place to find everything you need when setting up house. Please convey a big thank you to all the volunteers and staff who make this possible.” —Ashwin Sunil Apte

The loan closet is located in the basement of Abrams in Escondido Village. Appointments are required. See below for additional details.

For CCIS Volunteers

At any time during the year, but particularly in early September, we would love your donation of household goods in clean and gently used condition. Small appliances—such as toasters, rice cookers, tea kettles and coffee makers—are especially welcome.

The Loan Closet also needs flatware, plates, bowls, drinking glasses, cutlery, manual can openers, pots and pans.

We could use your help at the loan closet during the two weeks of Orientation in mid-September.
