Our La Crosse Warming Center is hosting a Pillow Drive, and we need your help! We are hoping to collect 45 pillows, pillowcases, and pillow protectors by October 31 so that every guest has a clean, comfortable place to rest their head on opening night.

Donations can be dropped off Monday through Thursday from 9:00 am-4:00 pm at our 5th Avenue office. Thank you for helping us create a warm and welcoming space for our community members in need.
