The Midnight Mission urgently needs donated hygiene kits, food boxes and essential supplies for people experiencing homelessness and food insecurity in Los Angeles. Every day, hundreds of our neighbors turn to us for nutritious meals, hot showers, clean clothing and essential services. For them, access to everyday necessities can make a meaningful difference.
You can help us provide more than basic necessities. You can help restore dignity, offer comfort and remind our neighbors that they are not alone.
There are four ways to help: assemble hygiene kits or food boxes, drop off donated supplies, volunteer to assemble and distribute kits on-site, or shop our Amazon Wishlist.
