In-Kind Donations

In High Demand as Temps Drop

Super Warmers are like hand warmers, but bigger. They get warm quickly and stay warm through the night. They are a critical component of our street outreach supplies during the winter.. We go through a lot of these, especially in extreme cold weather conditions.

Staying Warm and Comfortable.

We always need blankets. We use almost any type of blanket except for lap blankets or children’s blankets. New blankets are great. Clean and gently used blankets are also fine.

Always a winner!

Hot chocolate is a popular item all year long. Some people request it every time we meet them during street outreach. The kind with marshmallows are a plus, but any kind that we can mix with hot water is fine. We use both packets and large containers .

Something Quick and Filling

During outreach, we just call this soup. We carry the noodles (they come in cups) and thermoses of hot water to make them. These days we also carry hot sauce, so all we need are chicken and beef flavors. We make them spicey to order on the streets!

That Warm Feeling…

You might think coffee wouldn’t be popular at night, but people do take coffee from our street outreach team and it helps them feel warm and comfortable. We can use ground coffee. Any brand is fine, with Folgers being the most popular. We use it for office visitors and during street outreach.

Water is life.

We can always use water in 16 oz bottles. Water is greatly appreciated by the people we meet on the streets - all year ‘round.
