Gently Used Items Welcome:

Other Needed Support:
· Select Interfaith Council for Homeless Families of Morris County as your charity of choice on IGIVE.com and Via Search Engine
· Adopt-a-family—for the holidays or for a whole year. Either way, you meet with the family to discuss budget and wish lists· Hold a fund raiser for Interfaith Council—a great idea for a HS or college class to learn about and directly impact the lives of our neighbors· Introduce us to your congregation as a possible host site, support site, and/or financial or in-kind donor
· Give the gift of charity to someone you love, honor, or admire by donating to Interfaith Council in their name. You get the deduction, the recipient gets a beautiful acknowledgement and together you are making a difference in the lives of our families
