Support Us by Making a Donation

THERE IS A DISTINCTION BETWEEN HOMELESS & HOPELESS.

Our entire ministry operates on the goodwill of those who can and are willing to donate.

Donate what? Money, clothing, food, talent, and time.

We seek for our charity to be a conduit of QUALITY free goods and services to those in need from those who can provide. We exist to serve this community by treating each person we serve with dignity, this includes the items we provide. This means donated items must be in excellent and good condition and are subject to our current needs at time of donation. Whether you’re an individual, group, club, church, business, or organization you have the ability and opportunity to make a difference in this community through Dalton’s Greater Works. Here’s how you can help:

FOOD PANTRY

Greater Works has a client choice food pantry. Client’s choice means just that-the people we serve get to choose what food they prefer based on what they need. We use a sliding income scale (based on a number of people in the household) to determine how much food is allowed. Then we let them shop. There are guidelines of how many types of meat, veggies, etc… but we leave the choice of what food up to the individuals seeking our assistance. This is of course based on what is currently available in our donated offerings. Not only is there less waste, but the client gets what they truly need, not whatever is left over, providing self-worth and confidence. More importantly, our volunteers are people who listen and treat these individuals with the respect to everyone.

Those wishing to donate can donate unexpired foods such as canned goods (with “pop” tops preferred), cooking oils, sugar, flour, cornmeal, pancake syrup, mayonnaise, and hygiene products. Donations can be made anytime during operating hours or by appointment.

Our clothing “store” offers Client’s choice free clothing without cost to anyone in need, whatever the reason and with dignity. Clothing is offered throughout the entire calendar year and cycles for the seasons as needed. We take particular care to be sure to meet the needs of our homeless population year-round and will include not only clothes, but also socks, underwear, pajamas, belts, hats, boggans, mitten/gloves, thermals, and shoes. Availability of such items always depends on donations available. We offer these items to individuals/families once every thirty (30) calendar days so that we can serve as many people in our community as we can.

Those wishing to donate to this ministry can do so using the following guidelines:

All clothing needs to be clean, without stain and damage for women/men/children/teens/babies
Donated underwear must be new (in package) and we need for all ages and genders.
New and/or gently used brassieres are also encouraged
New and/or gently used shoes, sneakers, boots are always needed. Please refrain from offering footwear that is in disrepair.
Men’s jeans are ALWAYS in demand. We accept all sizes; however, we tend to be short of the smaller waist sizes (sizes 28 thru 34 waist are in high demand).
Donations can be made anytime during operating hours or by appointment. PLEASE do not leave donations outside our doors when we are closed. Thank you for your cooperation.
