‘For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’ Matthew 25:35-36
WE ALL HAVE STUFF…
Here is a list of items we generously accept
The foundation of our Sleeping Mats.
Men’s Clothing
As a group, we have a mission to look after the homeless men who are visitors to the Firehouse Shelter. Firehouse Ministries serves more chronically homeless men than any agency in the state of Alabama.
We particularly focus on clothing for these men. Every Friday the shelter holds a clothing closet event for the men to pick out clothes. Jeans are always needed. Other items needed are: Shirts, T-Shirts, Underwear, Socks, Shoes, Shoestrings, Hats, Backpacks
