Non-perishable food - jelly, peanut butter, canned fruits, vegetables, soups, pasta & meats, crackers, beans, cereal, etc.

Egg Cartons & Plastic Grocery Bags - we often get offers of eggs in bulk (30 per tray). We need the empty egg cartons to divide up the eggs to give to our guests. We also need plastic grocery bags for our guests to carry their groceries.

Toiletry items - toilet paper, shampoo, toothpaste, diapers, soap, detergent, etc.

Beds - need mattresses and box springs in gently used condition for our guests who do not have beds. We can also use sheet sets and comforter sets which are in gently used condition. Many of our guests that do have mattresses are using them without sheets.

Appliances - some of our guests are in need of stoves, washers, refrigerators and other appliances.
