Many of the men and women who come to us arrive with few or no personal belongings. During this holiday season, we ask anyone who would like to support our ministry to donate to our Christmas Bag collection this holiday season.

It’s simple. When you donate to our Christmas Bag collection, you are providing self-care products for patients and students so they feel comfortable throughout their stay with us.  As a non-profit organization, your contribution allows us to provide quality care for free to men and women who don’t have available resources.

Your impact doesn’t end there—when you donate to our Christmas Bag collection, you are helping provide a person the life-saving opportunity to start a journey of hope and healing. This creates a new gateway to transformative action that will help build a healthier, more vibrant community.

HYGIENE & TOILETRY ITEMS
You may also donate new hygiene and toiletry supplies such as: toothpaste, toothbrushes, combs/hair brushes, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, deodorant, shaving cream, aftershave lotion, feminine care products, lotions, Kleenex & tissues, wipes, electric shavers, razors, cotton balls and soap.

SELF-CARE SUPPLIES
We also want our students and clients to feel special, so we provide faith-based extracurricular items such as adult coloring books, arts and crafts as well as beauty products to reinforce their self-esteem.

Donate Retail Inventory
When your business donates excess retail merchandise or hygiene supplies to our Christmas Bag, you not only benefit through a tax-deductible donation (as determined by current tax law), you are also providing items that are well-needed at our program.

From customer returns and close outs, we are ready to engage with your business to give new items you no longer need a new life through our Christmas Bag collection.
