Urgent Donation and Volunteer Needs at Circle of Hope!

Winter Donations Urgently Needed

October is the start of coat season at Circle of Hope and we already sent 101 winter coats to children and adults experiencing homelessness at the Mary Eliza Mahoney House family shelter in Roxbury. Another partner family shelter requested 300 coats for adults and children this week and we need your help to fulfill these requests! Please donate gently used or new winter coats and accessories for all ages as soon as possible.

Drop off winter coats and accessories Monday-Thursday from 10-12 at Circle of Hope, located at 1329 Highland Avenue in Needham Center. Or run a "Winter Warmup" collection drive at your school, workplace, house of worship, or community group. View our Collection Drive Guide here. For help getting started, complete this form and we will follow up with you soon!

THANK YOU for your help keeping thousands of children and adults experiencing homelessness warm and safe this fall and winter!
