Jolie Smith, director of development, Shelter House:
“Housing. Affordable housing. We always need hygiene products. One thing people don’t realize is that with food stamps you can’t buy any hygiene products. So, we always ask people to give shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste, toothbrush. Gift cards. A gift card from CVS can help people buy medications they may need. Gift cards are always in need. Think about what you need and those are the needs of our families.”
