THIS IS NOT A VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY; RATHER A DONATION DRIVE OPPORTUNITY. PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION BELOW FOR MORE INFORMATION!
The City of Tucson estimates that more than 1,600 individuals and families are currently facing homelessness. It’s our mission to help those in need through a variety of programs and resources, and by providing nutritious meals, medical care, hot showers, and a warm bed. In addition, and during the hottest months in Tucson, The Salvation Army provides cold water, snacks, heat-relief items, hygiene and summer clothing to those who live in or nearby community parks through Operation Chill Out.
To that end, we’re currently seeking donations of bottled water, individually-packaged nutritious snacks and other summer items* for those less fortunate in our community - including children and youth! Please support The Salvation Army Tucson in helping those experiencing homelessness maintain their dignity while also getting the caring support needed to overcome poverty and homelessness.
We're happy to provide a collection box for your business or organization, if needed.
*LIST OF NEEDED ITEMS:
- bottled water
- beef or turkey jerky
