DRIVE OF THE MONTH



DRIVE OF THE MONTH:

Help support 2 great organizations!

During September and October, St. John’s will be collecting items for 2 great organizations:

  • Pathway Homes
  • Food Justice DMV (FJDMV)

Pathway Homes supports individuals with mental illnesses and co-occurring disabilities with a variety of non-time-limited housing and services to enable them to realize their potential.


Pathway recently launched a Mobile Outreach Unit, a mobile shower trailer which offers access to showers and hygiene products, comfort, and dignity to those experiencing homelessness.


Pathway Homes has requested the following items to support their clients getting through the cold weather as safely and comfortably as possible:

  • Hand and foot warmers
  • New underwear and long underwear in all sizes (mostly for men but some for women)
  • New Socks (all adult sizes welcome)

Food Justice DMV started during Covid, and delivers food and other needs to those who are insecure about leaving their residences. FJDMV doesn’t ask about status but believes many of their clients are undocumented.


Besides delivering food, FJDMV provides customized bags for each family (diapers, wipes, children’s Tylenol, Tylenol, Advil, feminine hygiene).


FJDMV has requested the following over-the-counter medications (brand name or generic):


Acetaminophen (e.g., Tylenol)

  • Infants (2yo): Dye-free liquid
  • Children: Dye-free liquid or chewable
  • Adults: Tablets or caplets

Ibuprofen (e.g., Advil, Motrin)

  • Infants (2yo): Dye-free liquid
  • Children: Dye-free liquid or chewable
  • Adults: Tablets or caplets

All donated items can be placed on the counter in Shears Hall until October 31. Thankyou for your generous support for those who need our support!
