The Backpack Event for Homeless

Please bring a bookbag with or 5-10 bags of food (brown paper bag lunches) and waters to hand out to homeless people. Most people make turkey sandwiches or peanut butter jelly sandwiches and a bag a chips . If you don’t want to go out with us but would like to donate food/ bottles of waters we will be there from 12pm to 12:10 so you can drop your items off. Your donation would mean a lot to someone in need.

We will be walking from market st to love park so dress comfortable and wear good shoes.
Kids are always welcome to come out with us. My son will be there and would love some company.

*New update for clothing/coats at the event*
We have such an overwhelming request for people that want to bring clothing because of the weather. We usually only do 1 clothing/coat drive a year in January.. That because it’s difficult to transport large bags of clothing during our walk from 9th and Market to 1600 JFK Boulevard. But we see the need and it’s time for change! Bring all your clothing to 1600 JFK Boulevard right in front of the 7-Eleven.. We usually meet there at 12:45.

DO NOT BRING CLOTHES TO 9TH AND MARKET…WE WILL ASK YOU TO TAKE THEM TO 1600 JFK BLVD ACROSS FROM LOVE PARK..NO EXCEPTIONS!!

Please keep in mind we do not have storage so we cannot take the clothes with us. Anything that you bring that isn’t accepted, your responsible for bringing back with you. During our January event, whatever we can’t hand out goes to a local clothing Dropbox . You can find these at your local supermarkets. If you have any questions about this please feel free to call me at 267-881-3763..

Hope to see you there if you have any questions please call me at 1-267-881-3763 or email us at customer_service@onekindactamonth.com.
