ITEMS TO DONATE

Currently, we see 12-15 families per week in addition to the homeless friends of Blessed Hope. We provide over 1400 meals per month, either in supplies to those who have a home or in ready-made meals for the homeless.

FOOD: Particularly helpful are pop-top cans and packages of granola bars or dried fruit, etc. Canned meats, peanut butter, "chunky" soups, stews and similar items are always needed. Pastas, boxed or canned potatoes, canned vegetables, cerals, etc. With the increase in families, we could also use milk and margarine. We have been blessed with a provider of bread.
