Happy Helpers for the Homeless

Outreach to Children

Currently, Happy Helpers for the Homeless provides 234 children and their families with a food basket every other Saturday.  We deliver these baskets directly to where the children are living; currently we deliver in 16 towns.  The needs are urgent.  This outreach takes place year-round.  We welcome support for this outreach from individuals and groups.

The following is a list of the food basket contents:

Large box of cereal, oatmeal, or pancake mix and syrup

Jar of peanut butter & jar of jelly

Four cans of tuna + Tuna Helper

One box of spaghetti noodles

One jar of spaghetti sauce

Four cans of soup

Four cans of ravioli

Two cans of fruit

Two cans of vegetables

One container of powdered tea or lemonade

Four miscellaneous items, such as macaroni & cheese

Snack items, such as crackers or granola bars

Place all items listed in a box or basket for us to deliver directly to the children.
