Each winter LSS organizes a drive to accept new socks, underwear and coats of all sizes for homeless men and women. The Angel Tree Holiday Gift Drive offers the opportunity to create a happy, joyful holiday season for children, families and former foster youth in our supportive housing programs. The May Book Drive provides summer reading for children. Call us at 925.825.1060 to learn more.
Furnish an Apartment for Formerly Homeless Foster Youth, Adults and Families
Help create a place to call home for those who have nothing; your support will build a sense of stability and safety. Your donation funds the most basic of items, including kitchen utensils, dishes, bath towels, bedding and larger furnishings. Contact our Development team to learn more: 925.825.1060 or Development@lssnorcal.org.
Welcome Baskets for Those Moving Into a New Home
You can create gift baskets filled with essentials: towels, kitchen utensils, cleaning supplies, personal hygiene items and more. These baskets are presented to formerly homeless foster youth and families to help them settle into their new home. Learn more here.

Thrivent Financial members can form teams to complete a one-time project for LSS. Your congregation, business or community service group can do the same, even if you are not a Thrivent Financial member.
