Needed Items
Although the Mission cannot accept randomly donated items, we still ask people to collect and/or purchase specific items needed by the men, women and children we serve.
Please browse our list which varies regularly. If you are interested in helping to meet any of these needs, please contact dougsmith@lightoflife.org. Please give your name when delivering items so that we can update our records, provide a receipt, and properly thank you.
