HOW YOU CAN HELP

As a nonprofit, Albany Helping Hands is dependent on donations for every aspect of day-to-day life at the shelter. Everything from our food (3 meals a day plus snacks), hygiene supplies, laundry supplies, to our clothing, giveaways are made possible because of supporters generously donating.

There are many ways for you to help us keep running:

Financially

o   Checks/money orders (to Albany Helping Hands)

o   Cash (Be sure to ask for a receipt)

o   Credit/debit cards (Online albanyhelpinghands.com or call and ask for the Finance Manager)

Food

Hygiene Products (can be dropped off at the Shelter)

o   Laundry detergent & dryer sheets

Clothing items

o   New, adult-sized items (shirts, sweatpants, socks,underwear, and bras) can be donated at the Shelter. All intakes are given a fresh, clean set of clothing to get them started.

o   Gently used and clean clothing items are also welcome.  

It is our goal at AHH to assist every person in their journey toward becoming a contributing member of society. First and foremost, we desire that they have a relationship with our Lord and Savior. You would be surprised how much a set of clothes; a meal and prayer can take a person. Thank you for wanting to be a part of their journey also.
