Gift Cards
Shopping is a luxury for our families. A gift card will allow a parent to go grocery shopping or holiday and birthday shopping for her own child. What a wonderful gift that is! Gift cards from the following stores are greatly appreciated: Any Grocery Store, Target, Walmart and Kohls.
AND – Gift cards for gas stations help our clients to fill their tanks!

Cars
Our families need safe cars to get to school and work. Donating your old car would allow a family facing homelessness a new start.
Even with the tax law changes, your donation is still tax deductible at full value since these vehicles are given directly to our clients, not sold.
Other Needs
Other donations: Get added to our LINK email list to see what our clients need and to offer donations of clothing, furniture, household goods, services, your time and expertise, etc.
Contact info@fhf.care to be added to our list or to offer something you have that you want to donate.
