Please Do Not Leave Donations Outside the Building. Thank You for Helping Us Care for Our Community and Campus!

Goods and Services

We’re so grateful for your generosity. To ensure every gift truly helps the families we serve, we focus on items and services that can be put to use right here. Sometimes that means we have to say no to donations, so we can be good stewards of your gifts.

When we have more of a certain item than we can use or receive something we can’t use at our shelter, we do our best to pass it along to other nonprofits or local groups who are also serving neighbors in need.
