Summer Needs, Please Support

John Owens

If you see someone on the street who needs shelter or other homeless services, call 215-232-1984 to request outreach anytime.

Like the song, “Summer In The City” by Lovin’ Spoonful, it’s gonna be a hot summer in the City of Philadelphia! Temperatures have already caused the City to initiate “Code Reds” to alert our outreach teams of the potential damage that heat waves could cause to the vulnerable populations on the streets. To assist our City Outreach team, the Hub of Hope and our case managers, we look to you for support to create moments of change and to make an impact towards the big picture: ending chronic street homelessness. Please consider donating the following items: (large sizes are welcomed)

  • Cases of bottled water
  • Boxes of Fruit snacks
  • Travel size sanitation wipes
  • Lip balm
  • Travel size Lotion
  • Footcare products
  • Shorts (men/women)
  • Tee-shirts (men/women)
  • Underwear (men/women)
  • Disposable razors and travel size shaving cream
  • Travel size first aid packages
  • Travel size non-alcoholic mouthwash

Items can be dropped off at 1515 Fairmount Ave, 19130 or you can view our Amazon Smile page for a list of items that can be purchased through Amazon.

Many thanks to you as we support and enhance the lives of those who are experiencing homeless and at-risk of poverty.
