Keeping clothing clean while expheriencing homelessness is very challenging.  We provide pre-paid laundry cards to local unsheltered homeless on an as needed basis so they can meet this essential need.

Homeless Prevention & Assistance Programs

We work with those in need to place them in area shelters as well as obtaining state and local social services. We provide basic personal hygiene items to area unsheltered homeless. We work with area faith based food pantries and clothes closets to refer those in need to existing sources for these services.

Haircuts

As you can imagine keeping your hair cut while experienceing homelessness can be a challenge. We provide payments to barbershops to obtain haircuts and shaves for the unsheltered homeless we serve.
