2- shelf utility cart
Looking for a small utility cart for use in our food pantry. Metal or plastic ok. Will be used by volutneers to easily move food donations. We truly appreciate your donation. Please call 292-5588. Thank You!


Antivirus Protection
This is a unique request: Our computer systems and server require increased antivirus protection to more fully secure our agency's confidential client information, among other things. In a time of cost-savings and budget cuts for our organization, we thought we would extend this as an option should someone be interested in funding such an item. One year of Antivirus for our system will cost $1,400, two years will be $2,100. We realize this is a very generous gift we are requesting, but the protection is a necessary one for us. Please know we truly value your support.


Depends undergarments needed
We are in need of Depends undergarments for men, size large. While embarrassing for some to think about, this is an essential item for personal comfort and is not covered by medical or food stamp programs. Donations appreciated. Drop off at 636 Old Post Road M-F.

    Laundry detergent
    Our shelter guests use our washers and dryers to clean their clothes and bed linens. In a time where our budget is tight, we would truly appreciate your generous donation of laundry detergent (powder or liquid, we aren't picky) and/or dryer sheets. These can be donated at our shelter location at 50 Nichols Street and you can ask for Tracy Caple. Thank you in advance for helping us keep our expenses low this year.


    Office Supplies Are Always Needed!
    Help us keep our costs down! We are currently in need of binders, legal pads (8 1/2" x 11"), white and colored copy paper (8 1/2" x 11" and 8 1/2" x 14"), staplers, paper clips, binder clips, pens and pencils, and clip boards. Please bring donations to our office at 636 Old Post Road, Fairfield, Monday through Friday, 9am-4pm


    Pillow cases
    Our shelter guests are in need of pillow cases. Clean linens are an important part of providing a comfortable place for our guests to stay and we would be happy to have your help. Please contact Tracey Caple at 254-2935 or drop off at our shelter located at 50 Nichols Street, Fairfield. Thank you in advance for your donations!


    Shelter Guests Need Personal Care Products
    Our shelters often have people come to stay who arrive with barely the basics and with little or no means to get what they need. The greatest need is for feminine products (tampons and sanitary napkins) and shampoo. Other needs include new, unused: deordorant, toothpaste & toothbrushes, shavers & shaving cream, kleenex, hair brushes/combs, adult incontinent garments, and diapers. Please call 254-2935 if you have a donation.


    Small Appliances Needed
    Operation Hope's clients can occasionally use microwaves, electric can openers and other small appliances for those moving out of our Shelters. Please call 254-2935 if you can help.


    Wish Granted: Community Kitchen forks & knives
    Thank you very much for the generous donations of forks, spoons and knives to our Community Kitchen. We truly appreciate your support of our work to help those who are hungry, homeless or at risk in our community.
