New Apartment Welcome Home Kit
At CCU, when we help an individual or family obtain an apartment after being homeless, they typically start from scratch. You can help them have a fresh start with a new apartment Welcome Home Kit.

* OR MORE: When you see “or more,” there is no pressure to buy “more.” We need a general minimum to include in each kit. However, if a three pack of paper towels is on sale for cheaper than a two pack, go ahead and get the better deal.
** Please DO NOT deliver spray bottles/shampoo/pump bottles in large trash bags. They will roll open, spill, and ruin other items. Please ensure these bottles are upright such as in a box or laundry basket.
Christian Churches United is a 501(c)3 non-profit social service agency founded as a collaboration of area churches to help those facing homelessness, poverty and incarceration. These kits are designed to get a household through their first few days/weeks while they get established. They are not intended to fully outfit their apartment.
