Dear Chicago Volunteers,
It's March and we're back at it again. We're collecting clothing (new or gently used), shoes, backpacks, new underwear, coats, toiletries, non-perishable foods, supplements, etc. Once again, we're looking to engage with 200+ homeless Chicagoans to provide human connection, living essentials and collect essential data that is going to help us get your homeless brothers and sisters off the streets.
PLEASE NOTE:
1) We are in big need of MEN'S CLOTHING. Please bring a new or lightly used coat, or hats, gloves, scarves and shoes. Women's apparel is appreciated, as well. Blankets, backpacks, shirts and new underwear are in demand, as well.
2) We will send out instructions prior to the event so you know what to expect the day of.
3) Please honor your RSVP by showing up on time. Donations are very appreciated, as well.
Please donate $20+ to help us procure care package items and cover our operational costs here: https://donorbox.org/ssoutreachfund or on this page via Donation option.
We look forward to having you join us. Your generosity, time and compassion are appreciated by us and those that need it the most.
