Our goal at People Serving People is to build stability and confidence within families. If an item needs repair or is too worn or damaged to use it yourself, we ask you not to donate it.

Please view our Needed Items list to see what our families need most.

Questions, or ready to donate? Contact us at giving@peopleservingpeople.org or by calling 612.277.0216.
