Urgent Needs for September
Each month we compile a list of our most-requested and most-urgently needed items. The list of needs for September ranges from new jeans to hot sauce! You can view the complete list of needs below. We thank you in advance for helping us fulfill these needs for our homeless guests and families in crisis.
Due to Covid-19, we need to be more mindful of our in-person visitors. If you plan to drop off donation items in person, we ask that you please coordinate in advance with Brooke. She can be reached by phone or email; 815-964-4105 ext. 203 cpengagement@carpentersplace.org. Donations by mail are always welcome and accepted at any time.
