PERSONAL CARE PANTRY As the rising costs of household necessities make more demand on the budgets of our clients, the bigger difference our donations make. Please think about taking the time to pick up an item or two for our local families in need. Following is a list of items needed to stock the shelves: Laundry/dish detergent, toilet paper, paper towels, tissues, feminine products, shampoo/conditioner/ combs/brushes, toothbrushes, toothpaste, bar soap, deodorant, razors, and shaving cream. The Linen Ministry needs gently used blankets and towels.
