Holiday Charity Drive

Food & Clothing Drive

November 1- December 15, 2024

We will collect monetary donations for two local food banks and clothing for Andre House of Hospitality. Because the mighty dollar can help these organizations leverage greater purchasing power, NO FOOD DONATIONS WILL BE COLLECTED BY EPAZ THIS YEAR.

Feed the Starving Children - Every dollar donated allows them to provide 9 meals to clients
St. Mary's Food Bank- Every dollar donated allows them to provide 7 meals to clients
Andre House of Hospitality - Donations of new socks and/or new and gently used sweatshirts, jackets & coats are preferred during this time of year.

We encourage you to setup collections within your office until December 15th and EPAZ's Community Service Committee will happily pick it up and deliver it to the charities for you.  We will also except donations at our upcoming events:

  • December 9  - Technical Luncheon Meeting at SRP Pera Club
  • December 10 - Joint Holiday Mixer at Short Leash Hotdogs + Taproom

During our December meeting our 50/50 raffle will be replaced to benefit our chosen charities. Raffle tickets can be purchased at the meeting or pre-purchased online.

                                

Andre House of Hospitality

The Andre House of Hospitality is an organization dedicated to serving the basic needs of the homeless population in Phoenix through the provision of food, clothes, and showers.  Please start collecting items of clothing that you would like to donate.  Coats, jackets, sweatshirts with hoods, socks and blankets are especially needed, however any clothing is appreciated.  www.andrehouse.org

Clothing can be dropped off at the Andre House of Hospitality (213 S. 11th Avenue, Phoenix, AZ 85007) or can be picked up by a volunteer from EPAZ.  Please call Rick Haskins at (480) 229-7757, if you should need clothing items picked up.
