Our numbers go up significantly by the end of the month as other sources of food dry up. On Wednesdays, during the day, we host our drop-in case management services, medical personnel, mental health outreach workers, and a substance abuse counseling meeting at the Marquard Center. We also offer showers three days a week to our guests. We supply them with a towel, soap, deodorant, shampoo, and other necessities. We have the only drop-off laundry service in Chicago.
Guests can drop off one bag of laundry per day with our volunteers.
Their clothes are washed, dried, folded, and held for pick up the next day. Showers and clean clothes are essential to maintaining a sense of personal dignity and making connections for a better future. However, monetary donations that we can use wherever they are needed the most are the most helpful to us. To donate now, click here.
