OTHER DONATIONS
Our friends are very appreciative of donations that protect them from hunger and the elements. Preferred times for delivery to the Center are Monday 5-6 pm, Wednesday 5-6 pm, Saturday 1-2 pm.
We operate a food pantry, a clothing pantry, hot meals, laundry and showers solely on donations.  Many of the people we serve live outside or in substandard housing and have limited cooking capabilities.  Please follow our guidelines for donations.

FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTIONS:
Checks may be made out to Grassroots with "DAY RESOURCE CENTER" added in the memo line and mailed to:
Grassroots
6700 Freetown Road
Columbia, MD 21044

You may also donate with a debit/credit card via PayPal or directly through your PayPal account (you do not need a PayPal account to use their credit card processing).  Remember to designate the ​DAY RESOURCE CENTER as part of your donation.

Gift cards to Walmart, Giant, B.J.’s are also appreciated for purchasing needed supplies.
