DONATE NOW
DONATE GOODS
The physical needs of homeless people are broad and immediate. Your donations continue to help people take showers, do laundry, become more educated and see the love of Christ as he cares for their physical needs.
All donations can be brought to JSBC Monday-Friday 7:30am-3:30pm. For weekend or after-hours donations, please call 502.584.6543 to ensure a staff member is available to assist you.
Upon arrival, park in the rear parking lot and enter through back door. A staff member will be happy to assist you. You will receive a tax-deductible donation receipt for your records.
If the items you wish to donate are not included in the list below, please consider donating your items to Goodwill in JSBC's name. In turn, Goodwill gives vouchers to us which allows our homeless friends to have funds to shop there to meet their needs.
