The results of the 2023 Boston Homeless Census were released in June and reiterated that homelessness is increasing in Boston and across Massachusetts. Your support will be more vital than ever when Circle of Hope resumes donation drop-offs in September and we transition into the colder months. The families we serve rely on Circle of Hope for warm clothing, outerwear, and hygiene essentials to keep themselves and their children safe. In addition to donating your gently used clothing, there are many ways to support the children and adults we serve:
Do Some Back To School Shopping. Shopping for new clothing for your kiddos? Consider buying an extra outfit for a child experiencing homelessness. When our donation center re-opens in September, we will begin sending back-to-school clothing to our partner family shelters right away so children can attend school comfortably.
Run A Collection Drive. Collect new socks, underwear, hygiene essentials, or other donations for Circle of Hope. View our Collection Drive Guide for help getting started.
Assemble Donation Kits. Together with your colleagues, church members, or community group, assemble Welcome Baby Bags, Dignity Bags, Period Pouches, Get Set packages, or Emergency Clothing Kits for Circle of Hope.
