How we help
Clothing bank
Dressing Lives, Inspiring confidence.
A wardrobe should be a source of comfort and confidence, not a luxury. Our clothing bank is committed to providing gently used clothing to individuals who may lack the means to afford essential garments. By offering a dignified experience, we aim to boost self-esteem and empower individuals to face life’s challenges with resilience.
How you can help: Donate gently-used clothing items or contribute financially to support our efforts in providing clothing to those who need it most.
Food Bank
Nourishing Bodies, Feeding The Spirits.
Hunger should never be a barrier to a fulfilling life. Our Food Bank is dedicated to ensuring that no one in our community goes to bed hungry. We collect and distribute nutritious food to individuals and families facing food insecurity. Through partnerships with local bussinesses and the generosity of our community , we strive to create a safety net that supports those experiencing difficult times.
How you can help: Consider donating non-perishable food items or volunteering your time to help us sort and distribute food to those in need.
