Project PLASE receives numerous donations throughout the year, offsetting many expenses we might incur in support of our clients. These donations arrive daily and require coordination, sorting, and storage. When left unchecked, we could get buried in the generosity of others. Your help is really needed. Each day we receive calls from generous people in the Baltimore metro area who wish to donate the following: New and Used clothing Baby items Furniture Housewares Blankets/Quilt sets Food items We need help setting up appointments to receive these donations, to receipt them accordingly, to sort them, and then to place them in their designated storage areas for distribution to our clients. We are hoping to have someone who can give at least 2-3 hours when here. Multiple days are welcome and we can be flexible with the schedule. Project PLASE’s mission is to end homelessness through rehabilitating and empowering the whole person.
