Gifts of Sharing make wonderful gifts
A Gift of Sharing for Christmas, Birthdays, Anniversaries, Graduations or Memorials.
Donate the amount of your choosing to Interfaith Hospitality Network of Greater Rochester and a beautiful specially designed gift card will be sent with an appropriate message to your designated gift recipient.
How meaningful this way of giving can be...not only does the recipient know that they have been remembered and honored, but homeless families among us are also given the gift of shelter, food and support in their name. Your gift recipient will know they are sharing and being honored in a very special way.
Just complete the Gifts of Sharing form and send to the address listed on the form.
Donations of household items
We have a continuing need for donations of “gently used” household items – beds, furniture, lighting, school supplies, etc. for our families. If you have items to donate, give us a call.
