Supplies Volunteers
Help Us Stock Up for Winter
Our 8th season starts October 10, World Homeless Day, and runs through the end of April.
Donated supplies are what let us offer a safe night's rest, a hot meal, showers, and laundry to guests who would otherwise have none.
They're also how we connect people to jobs, housing, and health care.
Drop off donations at the Flathead Warming Center, 889 N. Meridian Road, Kalispell, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
