We Need Locks!

When our clients enter the program, they are given a small locker to store what little personal belongings they have. We ask potential clients to bring their own lock on admission date but as you can imagine, not many have their own locks! Thus, we either buy most of them or have them donated. We could really use donations of locks to save on overhead costs so if you have some laying around (in good working order) we would really appreciate them and so would our clients!

Rising Food Costs

Unless you've lived in a cave for the last several years, you've noticed that food prices have been steadily increasing. At Charlotte Rescue Mission, we have a lot of our food donated but since we serve about 450 meals a day (even during the Summer), we have to purchase a significant amount as well.

For several years now, we have been known for our $1.79 meal price thanks to donated food and volunteer kitchen help. However, due to rising food costs, our average meal price has increased to about $1.92. If you receive communication from us from here on out, it will reflect this new amount.

$1.92 is still an incredibly low price considering the quality of what is served. $1.92 doesn't just buy some dry rice & beans. When we say "meal", we mean a hot, balanced meal served with a drink and usually a dessert or pastry. Interested in serving a meal?
