Donations needed for our Street Outreach program- help us keep people who are outside warm and dry

Save to Favorites

We are looking for teens and adults willing to host a Gear Drive for us. We are critically low on the following items:

• Men's (size Large and up) coats, windbreakers, jackets, fleece, sweatshirts and hoodies (used)
• New Underwear- women's (smaller sizes) and men's (all sizes)
• New Socks
• Blankets, throws and comforters (used)

Many people host Drives at their workplaces, among family and friends, in their neighborhood, among their club/team members or at their house of worship. It doesn't have to be an elaborate event- sometimes a collection box on your front porch or at your cubicle yields great results. This is a great project to keep kids and teens productive this summer!

Donations (a car load or smaller) can be dropped off at the Murphy Center, 242 Conifer Street Fort Collins between 9 am and 4 pm Monday - Friday. Donations of a larger amount are received at our warehouse by appointment.

If you would be interested in hosting a drive and would like more information, please email pam@homelessgear.org.

Some background information about Homeless Gear and Distribution:

Homeless Gear collects and distributes supplies that people need to survive and meet their basic needs while they are homeless. We are not a clothing bank - our niche is outdoor gear, outerwear, hygiene supplies and non-perishable food. That narrow focus enables us to fulfill our core mission, leverage resources and allow other organizations (e.g. clothing banks) to do what they do best. The one exception to our no-clothing policy is children’s clothes; we distribute basic children’s clothing at our quarterly Children in Need service event.
