Give Back Through Gatherings
Turn your celebration into a way to support RCS! Whether it’s a birthday party where guests bring donations instead of gifts, a dinner party that raises awareness, or a social gathering where you collect items for those we serve, your event can create lasting change. Get creative and bring your community together to make an impact!
Create Hygiene Kits or Goodie Bags
A small bag can make a big impact. By creating hygiene kits or goodie bags, you provide essential items for individuals experiencing homelessness—items that offer comfort, dignity, and care. These bags are distributed through our Community Kitchen, Emergency Shelter, and outreach efforts. Perfect for youth groups, clubs, and families looking for a hands-on way to help!
Host a Drive
RCS serves individuals and families 365 days a year, and keeping our shelves stocked is a community effort. Organizing a drive for food, clothing, or hygiene items is a simple but powerful way to make a difference. Whether it’s through your workplace, church, school, or neighborhood, every donation helps sustain our mission. Want to see the impact firsthand? Schedule a group tour today!
