Dear Community Partners,
It’s January again, which means it’s time for our annual Houseless Connect event! Houseless Connect is an opportunity for CARE to complete the Point in Time Count (PIT) to gather data on our community members experiencing homelessness here in Tillamook County, as well as an opportunity for our unhoused peers to have access to services and much needed items. CARE is currently looking for donations of the following items to distribute to those in need, and we ask that items donated are new or gently used:
Boots
Socks
Gloves
Hats
Coats and Jackets
Heavy Jeans
Sweatpants
Scarves
Blankets
Belts and Suspenders
Pet Food
Tents
Tarps
Sleeping Bags

Items can be dropped off at the CARE office during business hours at 2310 1st Street, Suite 2 in Tillamook. You my contact Elizabeth Wipperman for pick up if needed. She can be reached at ewipperman@careinc.org or call 503-842-5261 ext. 604
CARE thanks you for your time and generosity!
Best,
Elizabeth Wipperman
Shelter Community Manager
