Food, Clothing
and Supplies
When men walk through the doors of Helping Up Mission, they often arrive feeling ashamed, defeated, having not showered or changed clothes in days (sometimes weeks).
The first way we serve these men is by tangibly showing them that they matter to us and to God! |
|
 |
Each
man receives a set of hygiene products, a fresh set of clothes and
a warm meal. When a man’s basic needs are met, he is more open
to hearing the life-saving message of Christ.

As you might imagine…feeding,
clothing and providing for the needs of almost 300 men each day can
be very costly. Your donations of food, clothing and supplies help
to defray these costs.
