Donations Needed
This page gives an idea of items we are collecting for our unhoused friends. Donations are not limited to the items below.
We do accept any and all size donations, but larger quantities are very helpful as we currently serve around 1,000 people every month.
If you have something you aren't sure if you can donate or not, please do not hesitate to ask. If you are able to provide any of the following items please feel free to email or call us to schedule a drop of or a pick up.
Top Need for the Month
Men's & Women's Underwear
Food
Non-perishable goods such as canned foods, rice, pasta, or monetary donations towards food are welcome.
Beverages
Bottled water, juice boxes, tea, coffee, drink mixes, and other non-perishable drinks are especially welcome.
Snacks
Individually packaged snacks such as granola bars, crackers, chips, nuts, and dried fruit are especially appreciated.
Clothing & Bedding
Every item you give—whether it’s a gently used jacket, sweater, socks, or gloves—can offer warmth, dignity, and hope to someone in need. Practical items in all sizes, especially winter wear and everyday essentials, are greatly appreciated. A simple blanket, pillow, or set of sheets can offer warmth, comfort, and a sense of security to those facing difficult nights. Clean, gently used or new items are welcomed and will be distributed directly to individuals in need. Clothing can be dropped off at any Community Aid under our partner number 50353.
Toiletries & Batteries
Items such as soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo, deodorant, and feminine hygiene products can make a world of difference to those without regular access to these basics. New and unopened items are especially appreciated. We also collect new unopened packs or cases of batteries as most of the light in the encampment comes from flashlights or lanterns that both requires batteries to be powered on.
Dog & Cat Food/Treats
Dry dog food or cat food along with treats are also accepted as some of our unhoused friends have animals with them. We also accept flea collars and toys for the animals.
