Donating goods makes a difference.

Refugees, foster children, older adults, and families in poverty greatly benefit from your generosity. Because of you:

  • Refugees, or those visiting the food pantries or family resource centers can receive non-perishable food essentials.

  • Foster children who leave their homes with nothing can get started in a safe and loving home.

  • Older adults on a limited income have the personal hygiene and cleaning supplies they need to live happily and healthily.
