The need for donations is constantly growing. We serve up to 150-300 families per day.
Most individuals that come to us are working poor, and for them these are needs, not wants.
The individuals and families come from all walks of life, whether disabled, elderly, children (more than 30%) and many with your help can get back on their feet or at the very least face the coming week with hope and dignity.
We accept everything, except furniture or large items. Clothing, shoes, household items, hygiene, small appliances (like toaster ovens or coffee makers), linens, etc. are all accepted. We do also accept locking pill bottles & bags! Dropoff at our office at 501 S. 9th Ave – there is a donation bin in our gated lot from 7:30AM-12PM, Mon-Fri. Our building is open until 3PM. Please contact us with any questions.
