shop for a cause
Did you know that you can support our mission while doing your every day shopping? It’s become that easy to make a difference in your community! We now have unique opportunities available for you!
You can make a difference by shopping for our current needs on any of the platforms that you love to use! We have wishlists based on our current needs that are updated often. We now have available wishlists for Amazon, Walmart, and Target! And of course, if you prefer to shop on your own based off of our current needs list on the side of our website, we are thankful for whatever method you choose. We are honored to be able to partner with you and different platforms to create meaningful yet easy ways to give back.
We will still update our current needs banner on the right-hand side of our website if you prefer to shop for our needed in-kind items in another way/place. We keep it frequently updated so that you can check in to help us meet the ever-changing/fluctuating needs of our most vulnerable community members. If you have any questions or want information on other ways to support, email donate@hesedhouse.org and our team will be happy to cater to your unique giving preferences.
Why you should shop our wishlists…
Convenience and ease are not the only benefits of shopping off of our wishlists. When you shop directly from our lists, you are helping us manage the needs of our guests while also managing the storage that has become scarce since we began building our new men’s shelter across the street. We are excited about this new space but we have had to limit the amount of donations we accept until storage opportunities become available, so we are glad to now offer this option for those that are seeking to donate in-kind items. We have seen a tremendous response from our community and we look forward to continue to engage with you in this way!
If there is a specific part of our work that inspires you, you can shop to support that ministry. We write descriptions so you know how items will be used within each ministry. It may also be a benefit to be able to see the needs of our organization as a whole, as our holistic work to serve our most vulnerable neighbors is complex and ever-changing.
Note the details…
Each item on our list has a description that lets you know what the item will be used for within our organization! We always want to be transparent with our donors, and these wishlists are an extension of that. We have added items for everything from hygiene products for our shelters to building maintenance needs! We have also added items that will go towards initiatives of ours like our street outreach and move-out ministries.
You will also be able to see our highest priority items that are displayed with a green banner over those particular items. These often change as needs fluctuate for our most vulnerable community members. We have also set up a feature for you to see the quantity we request of each item. Some of these numbers vary based on need, items being fulfilled in other ways or avenues, and/or storage space to continuing to be at a premium.
