Our "Wish List"

Many volunteers bring donations with them. Some prefer to have a fundraising drive. Since businesses and organizations, big and small, can help at all levels, we have compiled a "wish list" to give you an idea of items needed to help us work more efficiently. You can coordinate your donations through our Director.

The Director may be contacted here or by leaving a message with our receptionist at 228-701-0555.
