Shoes For Women - 1 pair of shoes

Alternatives for Girls

$20.00

Your $20 gift will allow us to purchase one pair of footwear for the girls and women in any of our programs. The option of purchasing shoes instead of relying on donations allows us to purchase the kind of shoes we know most of the women need here. We are always in need of bigger sized walking shoes. With this gift, we can buy a pair of brand new shoes that will last much longer for these women. We all know the affect a shoe that does fit versus a shoe that doesn’t fit can have on you physically. For these women, that physical discomfort is compounded each day since many do not own a car and walking is their main form of transportation. Therefore, a good pair of shoes is very important for their survival. Buy this gift to help ease the physical pain of these young girls and women.

Feel Your Best - 3 hygiene kits

Alternatives for Girls

$10.00

Your $10 donation will provide 3 hygiene kits. Last year, through the Safe Choices program, we distributed 838 hygiene kits to the women on the streets. However, we depend on the items to be donated for the hygiene kits, and there were many nights where we ran out of hygiene kits to pass out. We also have a walk-in resource room with a shower. For women living on the street, a shower can sometimes be a rarity. When these women come in for a shower, we give them a hygiene kit at that time too. These hygiene kits are very important for the welfare of the women we serve – as in the case for all of us, when we feel clean, we feel stronger, happier, and more confident. Your gift will be a great show of support Alternatives For Girls and for work that we do.
