Clothes for Charity

DONATE

Clothing

​

Wearing clean clothing lifts a person’s spirit by removing the shame that comes with wearing dirty clothing.  Your clothing donation has a great impact on our guests that come to receive services.  Clothing donations that are gently used, laundered or new are gladly received at donation station inside the building. Our most needed clothing items are: men’s and women’s underwear sizes Sm and Med. men’s and women’s jeans and shoes. Please do not leave donations outside on the property or in doorways after hours.

 

Hygiene Items

​

Travel sized soaps, shampoos, conditioner and antiperspirants are perfect size to carry in a back pack or use for our shower program.

 

Food

​

We have a guest pantry that supplies individual food items for our guest to eat when TFH is not operating.  The types of food donations that serve our guest best are food items that they can eat with little to no preparation.  These items would be: canned meat, fruits or vegetables, canned hearty soups, Cup O Noodles and Top Ramen.

​​

​Coffee, coffee creamer, stir sticks, sugar, hot chocolate and cereal are other items we need on a regular basis. These items are essential for opening our doors in the morning to our guests that have endured a difficult night. Coming inside to a cup of coffee and breakfast offered with the warmth and smiles of our volunteers is a start to a better day.

​​​​​​

Kitchen

​

​We rely on donations of paper bowls, heavy duty paper plates or 9×9 take out containers to serve our provided meals. Soup bowls, plastic ware, 16oz paper coffee cups, 16oz cold beverage cups, and napkins are also necessary to provide the very best for our guests.

​

​

​​We receive donations at the 12th St door entrance

Monday-Friday, 9am-2pm.

 

Please do not leave donations in doorways or on the property.

​

Do not put donations in the green bins outside. 

Those bins are reserved for outgoing. Thank you!
