A small group of local volunteers is coming together to provide critical winter survival items to individuals in our community who are experiencing homelessness. This effort is not affiliated with any organization; it is simply neighbors helping neighbors during life-threatening winter weather.
Whatsoever You Do has generously agreed to serve as the community drop-off location for donated supplies.
Every item makes a difference. Everyone can afford to give at least one item. One person can help save a life.
