BRIGHTEN THE HOLIDAYS FOR SHELTER RESIDENTs
We welcome your cash donations and gift cards in any denomination for youth, adults, and families living in our shelters or enrolled in our poverty-fighting case management programs.
Our programs seek to empower clients to make their own choices. So, providing a gift card – of any size – supports that. Many clients lack transportation, so gift cards to easily accessible places work best.
Gift cards are also used as incentives throughout the year to provide motivation to achieve goals and small rewards when goals are accomplished.
We suggest:
VISA, Walmart, Target, Cub Foods, Sam’s Club, Costco, Subway, Jimmy John’s, Starbucks, Caribou Coffee, Dominos, McDonald’s, Burger King

We are placing in-kind donations on hold for the time being:
Volunteers recently cleaned out and organized a large amount of in-kind donations, so we’re in the process of rebalancing our inventory to best pair those donations with client needs. Please check back later in the year for more information. Thank you!
