Ways to Help

This list represents ongoing needs at the Mission. Most are simple, everyday items you may have at home or can easily purchase. You may even want to organize a drive or event at your church, school or organization to help us in these needed areas. You can also scroll down to find links for volunteering and financial donation opportunities.

Every bit helps! Thank you!
