Fundraising and Donations

We are constantly fundraising to keep our activities going. From regular raffles to collecting at events (pre-pandemic) to soliciting donations of supermarket food and vouchers, we take every opportunity to help you to help us! If you’d like to get involved, whether by taking part in a raffle, donating money, or volunteering your time to help out, we’d be delighted to hear from you…

Donate food & essentials

We welcome all donations of food and essentials. The most useful items are UHT milk, baked beans, cereal, tinned spaghetti, pasta sauces, margarine, coffee, tea, hot chocolate, sugar, washing up liquid and toilet rolls, but everything you can donate is much appreciated.

To find out the best place to drop off donations in your area, just give us a call on 07955 518 669.

We make good use of supermarket vouchers to buy in bulk, which helps us to make up hampers for more people in need. If you are a supermarket or organisation wishing to help in this way, please get in touch with us on hohwsec@gmail.com.

“Selfless people juggling their time to help those in real desperate need. They need and deserve every ounce of support. I beg anyone that reads this, give money, food items, clothing (especially in winter), and if you can spare it, time. Sleeping bags and tents are always welcome.”

– Bob, a Helping our Homeless Wales supporter
