Downtown Daily Bread is on AMAZON!
Visit our Wish List to help the hungry and homeless in Harrisburg.
One of the best ways to help Downtown Daily Bread is to collect or purchase items from our Wish List. Most of these are items are given out daily to clients at the shelter and during street outreach visits. A few other items are for our Soup Kitchen meals.
Feel free to team up with friends, family, and co-workers for a one-time or recurring collection. For clothing, blankets, and backpacks, items can be gently-used/no stains or damage, OR new. To coordinate a delivery, please email Susan at [email protected]. Thank you!
