Welcome Home Kits are a great way to provide essentials for a family that has just moved from homelessness to housing. There are so many items needed when first moving into a new home, including cleaning, office, bathroom, and kitchen items. These kits are a great way for a family, group, club, or scout troop to welcome their neighbor. Simply SignUp Here to let us know which kit you will be assembling.
We are always in need of items to use in our Day Center and to support our guest families. These items include gift cards, paper products, cleaning supplies, linens, and food staples. Check out our full list – Needs for Day Center and Guest Families.
