| Almost every person entering our shelter program requires good, warm (or cool) clothes. Often times our guests arrive with only the clothes on their back. We are also able to give our guests household items when they move into their own homes. We rely totally on donations from the community for this service. We keep items on site for emergency situations and refer to other helping agencies for longer-term solutions. On-going needs include: Blankets Sheets for single beds Towels Wash Cloths New underwear for men, women and children Socks Personal hygiene products such as: Soap, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, deodorant, disposable razors, toothbrush/toothpaste, etc. Cleaning supplies such as: Pine cleaner, bleach, glass cleaner, bathroom cleaner, Dawn dishwashing liquid, paper towels Food items including: Rice, assorted pasta, vegetable oil, self-rising flour, self-rising cornmeal, dried beans (pinto, black-eyed peas, etc.) spices, mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup, fresh fruit and veggies (in season), powdered milk, coffee, creamer, sugar, cereal (hot or cold), quick grits.... And as always, financial donations are necessary to keep the doors open. Please mail your donation to: PO Box 5217, Statesville, NC 28687 or use the convenient PayPal option on the side. Please indicate in the memo what your gift is to be used for (i.e., general fund, capital campaign, My Sister's House, Soup Kitchen, endowment, etc.) Our ability to provide our guests with necessities is only possible because of a giving, caring community! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! |
