Giving Opportunities at Carpenter’s Place this Christmas

This beautiful time of year often sparks in our hearts extra kindness, generosity and compassion for those less fortunate. For that we are deeply grateful and have many opportunities for you to help make Christmas special for our homeless guests!

Review the options below and if you’d like to get involved as an individual, family, co-workers, church members, class of students, or any other group, just contact us and we’ll work out the details! Your involvement will be deeply appreciated!

Warm winter boots! Winter is here and warm boots are greatly needed! Men’s sizes 10 to 13. (If you can’t get out to shop or just don’t have the time, cash donations can be designated specifically for the purchase of boots.)

NOTE: Donations can be dropped off in person at Carpenter’s Place Monday-Friday, 8:00 am – 4:30 pm. Due to road construction, our facility on Railroad Avenue can only be accessed from 7th Street.
