Annual Hope Tote Drive Begins

Easter is the time of year that Charlotte Rescue Mission has it's annual drive to collect toiletry and other basic necessities for the men and women we serve. When a client enters our program, many come with nothing but the clothes on their back. We pass out (free of charge) toothbrushes, deodorant, shampoo, socks, underwear and whatever else they may need. Although we receive these types of donations year round, our annual 'Hope Totes' drive (leading up to Easter) is the time of year when we receive the majority of our toiletries. You may have seen the purple bags we send out. (We will be glad to send some to your group if you don't have them).

The Scottish Bank has generously agreed to partner with us. Drop of locations can be found at our main web site. We expect to bring in even more toiletries this year. Thanks to all those who make this possible.
