Participate in Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week by Collecting Needed Items

National Hunger & Homelessness Awareness Week is held each year the week before Thanksgiving.  This week-long observance is an opportunity to share our compassion with neighbors who are in need and to work toward a community where no one has to experience hunger or homelessness.

Individuals and businesses interested in addressing the issues of hunger and homelessness this holiday season can collect items for Matt Talbot Kitchen & Outreach (www.mtkserves.org) such as non-perishable food for our pantry, socks, warm hats and gloves, blankets, and large and extra large sweatshirts and coats.  Quarters for laundry and gift cards to purchase basic household items such as towels, dishes and sheets are also needed for clients who have been newly housed through Matt Talbot’s Housing Program.  All donations received will be shared with the guests that come to Matt Talbot’s community kitchen for hunger relief, outreach, and housing services.

Donations can be dropped off at Matt Talbot during regular business hours (Monday – Friday, 8:30 am – 5:30 pm).  Donations of coats, hats, gloves and sweatshirts can also be dropped off at Paul Mitchell The School which is located at 5601 S. 59th Street, Suite D.
