Giving Tuesday and South Dakota Day of Giving is coming up on Nov. 30.
The Bishop Dudley Hospitality House is asking for hygiene items and financial gifts this Giving Tuesday. Our mission is largely supported by our generous community: you all!
As you are shopping this holiday season, please consider us as you are filling your carts. This Giving Tuesday, we are hoping for the following items:
Men's and women's deodorant
Toilet paper
Razors
Toothpaste
Shampoo
Conditioner
Lotion
Winter gloves
Last year, we served 1,549 unduplicated overnight guests and 44 families, including 78 children.
So far this year, we have served 1,556 individuals (including 100 children and 61 adults from 50 families) in our community.
Last year, we provided 15,758 showers and 4,237 loads of laundry for community members.
What a financial donation could provide:
$30: A day’s worth of showers.
$50: Bedding for one bunk.
$60: A day of laundry services.
$200: Lunch for 120 people.
