Help us provide urgent items.
We are currently helping over 200 families every other Saturday with food so they can get by. Please see our “Needs” page for the food that is needed. We also provide other basic necessities – large size (12-16 oz.) body wash, shampoo, toothpaste, wash cloths and toilet paper. Call our office to arrange to deliver them at your convenience, to 1411 Market Street, Harrisburg. 717-737-4107.
Help with repair and maintenance at the Market St. homes.
We have five bedrooms and a bathroom that are clean and ready to be set up. We still need a full-size bed set (headboard, frame, box springs and mattress) for one room. If you would like to help furnishing the last bedroom or up set them up, call our office, 717-737-4107.
Help us rebuild our garden.
During the summer we love to be in the garden with our family and friends, but it needs work this year. There are three areas to be worked on – playground for smaller children, the porch and the garden. The playground area needs two fences cleaned or painted; the metal playhouse needs cleaned and painted; the playset needs to be cleaned and the ground in the area needs prepped and a new soft surface put in. The concrete porch needs repaired and painted. The garden has benches that need painted; the fence needs cleaned and repaired; the shed needs repaired and painted and the ground needs work done before we can plant our garden. We also need some lavender plants. We are planning on garden work days March 29 and April 5. Bring your tools and come join us. Please contact us if you have any questions, need another time to come and help or would want to take on an area.
