Street Meal Clothing Collection List of Needed Items

Help provide care packages for our East Bay neighbors in need.

Here is a list of needed new or gently used items to help our neighbors in need of shelter. (Keep in mind, this list is by no means comprehensive—if you’re wondering about whether or not we can use something, just ask!)
