Donated Items
Realizing the need for housing for the
mentally ill, Gateway House has made a commitment to do everything
possible to assist members in their search for safe, decent, and
affordable housing. It is not uncommon for Gateway House staff and
members to provide assistance in selecting an apartment, making
deposits, obtaining furniture and food, and in making the actual
move. We are presently in need of “household” items such as
furniture, sheets, towels, kitchen items, toilet tissue, etc. that
would assist someone moving into an apartment, maybe even for the
first time. Any donations of such items would be appreciated.
There may be other items from which you
feel Gateway House could benefit such as computers or office
furniture. We have also received gifts of real estate for which we
are extremely grateful. Please do not hesitate to contact Phil
Emory, Executive Director, if you have questions regarding a
donation.
