Want to help someone in our community who is working to get back on their feet?
Our Peer Support team at Gaston Outpatient maintains a Blessings Cabinet, Clothing Closet, and Client Supply area to provide everyday essentials directly to individuals we serve. These resources are used regularly, and we're asking our community to help us restock some of our most-needed items.
🥫 Food & Drinks
Ready-to-eat, non-perishable foods are especially helpful for individuals experiencing homelessness or housing instability. Current needs include pull-top canned foods, tuna or chicken kits, peanut butter and crackers, granola bars, cereal cups, fruit cups, individually packaged snacks, bottled water, and other foods requiring little or no preparation.
🧴 Personal Care
Soap, shampoo and conditioner, toothbrushes, toothpaste, deodorant, feminine hygiene products, and other basic toiletries.
👕 Clothing
Clean, gently used clothing, shoes, coats, seasonal items, and new socks in all sizes. We are especially in need of men's clothing right now.
📓 Recovery & Everyday Supplies
Notebooks, journals, current-year planners, folders, pens, pencils, and other organizational supplies.
Something as simple as a planner, clean outfit, or meal can make a meaningful difference for someone managing appointments, Recovery Court requirements, treatment, employment, and the everyday work of rebuilding their life.
📍 Donations can be dropped off at the Peer Support Office at Gaston Outpatient or left with the front desk.
Thank you to everyone who continues to help us meet people where they are. Your donations go directly toward supporting members of our community when they need it most. 💙
