Convenient Way to Support the Gateway Center
The Mission has partnered with Minimus.biz to allow our supporters to purchase individual-sized personal products and
ship them directly to the Mission. The average length of stay at the Gateway Center, our emergency shelter, is 14-days,
making travel size products the perfect fit for our Gateway Center guests.Just $30 provides personal care kits for 10 individuals. For less than $10, you can purchase 100 bars of soap or 100 packets of shaving cream. 144 toothbrushes can be provided for under $14. Indeed, a little can go a long way. Please help us continue to meet the basic needs of the men we serve.
