 SAFE HARBOR RESCUE MISSION’S

CURRENT NEEDS (WISH) LIST

                                       

Contact:  Teena Stewart, Phone: (828) 326-7233  Email: teena@safeharborrescuemision.org

 

The best way to help Safe Harbor is through financial contributions. In the warmer months our

financial need increases because giving decreases. Groups who want to help might be interested in our

Twenty-Twenty Vision Program. Call for more info. Below are additional items we also need.

 

**PLEASE NOTE:  We don’t have room for clothing donations. Our ladies earn points and shop at Greater Hickory

Cooperative Christian Ministry and also help sort clothing there. When you donate to GHCCM you help Safe Harbor.

 

Bolded items are more pressing needs
