Donors
From food, to the occasional household appliance to monetary gifts, our shelter is kept stocked by the generous donations of people like you.
We accept donations of perishable and non-perishable food items for the shelter. We also welcome anyone to cook dinner for the guests, as the men who work often miss the meal at the drop-in center. Please contact Christina at cbowman@xaviermission.org to find out what items are needed and what dinner days are available.
We sometimes accept books or DVDs, and occasionally small household appliances if one that we have stops working. Please do not drop off any items without first contacting Christina at cbowman@xaviermission.org.
Absolutely! Please visit our Donation page for information about monetary donations.
