Striving to build a community where everyone helps and no one goes without.
The basic needs we are focused on meeting, are needs that we all share, as human beings.
We support long time Maine families, newly arrived immigrant families, people escaping domestic abuse, people coming out of incarceration, and people who are unhoused or newly housed.
We provide essentials so individuals & families can focus on fulfilling and pursuing higher needs.
We partner with caseworkers, teachers & street outreach teams to learn the needs of people in Maine. We also invite people in to volunteer and to give what they can to support our larger community.
818,850
items distributed.
1000+
new volunteers join a year.
66,899
essential kits have been made and donated by the community.
Your effort matters.
We aim to inspire you to dig in, get involved, get creative and integrate supporting others into your routine.
