Donation Drop Off Day New Life Church
January 29, 2017 @ 12:30 pm - 2:30 pm
Join the parishioners of the New Life Church and Academy as they donate warming items to the Sub Zero Mission.
Nobody should freeze to death in America!
We take the following items:
Our Stay Alive Five
Hats (winter)
Coats (adult sizes L – 4xl)
Gloves
Boots (Men’s Size 9 – 13)
Sleeping bags
Other items
We take ONLY NEW Socks please.
Tents
Hand warmers
PLEASE: No pants. No dresses. No undergarments. No toys.
Blankets are not a big need although we have places that will take them. Blankets and comforters are not practical for most homeless. Unfortunately, wet is a factor as much as cold and blankets get wet and become burdensome items to carry for somebody who has no place to leave them.
We also do not have much room for children’s sizes as we don’t find kids in the places we go. Typically, most kids get into shelters with special arrangements and accommodations geared towards people their age. We have places to take items donated for children, however, children’s items take resources to sort, store and transfer.
