We purchase items used most often in bulk via Amazon and have created Mo Hope's Wish List to allow you to purchase these items via AmazonSmile and have them delivered to us in a COVID-safe manner.

Our Mo Hope's Wish List includes items like the tents and sleeping bags we give out, fast food gift cards, microwavable meals, thermal underwear, and much more.

We ONLY accept NEW essential clothing and footwear. Our primary focus is on providing new underwear, t-shirts, shorts,  jeans, belts, and footwear. The items we need can be purchase via our Amazon Wish List and Walmart List. If a guest needs special clothing for work, we will try to assist. We lack the capacity to receive and process used clothing. Please do not drop off clothing donations at our events!

Gifts Worthy of our King...

We are committed to boosting the self esteem of those we serve through the gifts we give them. When Jesus said in Matthew 25:31-46 that when we do for the "least of these", we do for Him, we choose to interpret that two ways. We did for them as He would have done. And we did for them as if they were Him. This prompts several questions...

Would Jesus give rags and raunchy items? Or would He give the very best He could?

Would you give Jesus rags and raunchy items? Or would you give Him the very best you could?

If you believe "beggars can't be choosey", then you completely miss the spirit of what we're about...creating Moments of Hope...instead of reinforcing a diminished self esteem and stigma.

Our Mo Hope Pantry and Mo Hope Mobile Pantry at our Saturday Servings events rely mostly upon food drives by partner churches, businesses, neighborhoods, and private donations of canned goods & toiletries to keep our shelves stocked. We currently distribute enough groceries every Saturday for over 5,400 meals for over 900 hungry neighbors. We accept donations of the following items by appointment only (804) 913-9151:

• Boxed/bagged beans, pastas, rice, etc.
• Microwavable meals like Armour Compleats and Campbell's 15 oz. bowls.
• Canned fruits, pastas, meats, proteins, soups, veggies, etc.
• Farm fresh eggs, fruits, meats, veggies, etc.
• Toilet paper, feminine hygiene items, soap, deodorant, shampoo, conditioner, razors, toothbrushes & toothpaste, laundry detergent, diapers, wipes, etc. 
• No travel sizes or opened items will be accepted.

We ONLY accept NEW sleeping bags and tents because of the high rate of failures in the field after giving out used gear. Gifting a moldy tent that is missing poles or a musty sleeping bag with a broken zipper does little to boost the self esteem of the recipient, and often requires near-immediate replacement by us. The sleeping bags and tents we use  have been field tested by our staff and hundred's of recipients, and can be purchased via our Amazon Wish List and drop shipped to us.

Our typical friend living outdoors in a tent will need a replacement tent and sleeping bag every three (3) months. This is primarily due to most store-bought tents & sleeping bags not being designed nor constructed for daily use 365 days per year. We provide temperature-appropriate sleeping bags for each season.
