Monetary donations

Whether you make a single gift or monthly donation, it is with your kindness and generosity that we can continue preventing homelessness in Reading. Visit our donation page for more information about ways you can give.

Donating items

We sincerely appreciate all the support our community offers but we are not always able to accept donated items. We usually respond to client needs on an ad hoc basis, and have very limited storage and no refrigeration space.
