Please Help Us Help Our Homeless Neighbors

It’s easy to take simple things for granted – a blanket to sleep with or socks to keep your feet warm. Many homeless people in the Little Rock community don’t have access to these things as they sleep outside in the cold.

Students from the Clinton School of Public Service will host a ‘Keep Little Rock Warm’ drive for the homeless community. Help out by donating new or clean, gently used sleeping bags and socks at the times and locations below.

Donation drop-off times and locations:

Ways to participate:

1. Drop off new or clean, gently used sleeping bags and socks at the Clinton School of Public Service, Sturgis Hall, on Friday from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. or Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

NOTE: On Saturday, from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., the Jingle Bell Run/Walk will take place in front of the Clinton School. For your convenience, you can drop off donations in front of the Clinton Presidential Center from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on Saturday.

2. Make a tax-deductible monetary donation. Make checks payable to The Van – a mobile homeless care unit. Click here for more information about The Van.

3. If you cannot drop off donations with us, the Salvation Army is always accepting donations. Please contact the Salvation Army (1111 W. Markham St, Little Rock, AR 72201) at (501) 374-9296 to schedule a time to drop off a donation.
