13 Families. 40 to 50 people. 6-8 staff on a daily basis.

Can you imagine how many rolls of toilet paper, boxes of Kleenexes, and bottles of hand soap we go through on a weekly basis?

We also provide BRAND NEW bedding and pillows to every guest that enters our doors so they feel seen, cared for, and welcomed.

Can you help us replenish some of these supplies that we are running low on during ? Items can be purchased using our Amazon Wishlist link below, if you have an Amazon account. You can also pick up and extra package of toilet paper, Kleenexes, hand soap bottles, sheets, and/or pillows on your next shopping trip at your favorite store and drop them off at the Promise House. Please call 507-281-3122 or email [email protected] to set up a drop off date and time.

That local expertise is one of Family Promise’s greatest strengths! ⭐️
