Necessities
"
I like to stay clean, but don't have money for things like shampoo
and deodorant." -- Street Friend, Newark
BRIDGES
gladly accepts gently worn clothing and seasonal goods. Although
we accept clothing for men, women, and children, our greatest need
is for casual men's clothing.
Out
of respect for our homeless friends, we distribute only new socks
and underwear. If you would like to contribute towards the purchase
of these new items, please Contact
us.
We are truly grateful for the items that fill our truck every week.
