In-kind donations

CCS is now accepting in-kind donations of clothing and hygiene items at its two locations, and packaged food for the House of Peace Emergency Food Pantry. We regret that we cannot accept other items at this time.

The House of Peace: Donations are accepted from 1:00 p.m. and 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. To deliver, please ring the doorbell then return to your vehicle. Staff will assist with unloading and provide a receipt.

Saint Ben's Meal: Donations are accepted from 9:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m., Monday through Friday. To deliver, please ring the large doorbell next to the Meal Hall doors, and then return to your vehicle. Staff will assist with unloading and provide a receipt.


Each ministry site distributes hygiene items. The St. Ben’s Community Meal site also provides assistance with bus tickets to medical appointments, traveler’s aid assistance, co-pays for necessary prescriptions, hair-cuts, a shower program, eye glasses, birth certificates,  IDs, and GED tuition assistance. The House of Peace provides direct help to guests needing support with family issues.
