Since 2014, we’ve been meeting women on their terms through street outreach.
As a survivor-created organization, we know firsthand how difficult it can be to access basic hygiene items and the uncertainty of not knowing where our next meal might come from while on the street. We believe that all women should have access to basic hygiene items, regardless of their situation.
Every Sunday, volunteers ride along with a trained driver to hand out hygiene bags, meals, and clothing to women on Sullivant Ave.
Every Sunday our Sullivant team provides a hygiene bag, a meal, and a change of clothes to 25 women on the streets of Columbus, Ohio.
Meals provided by our generous volunteers are included in every outreach bag. Outreach meals include a sandwich or a main course, vegetable or side dish, fruit, chips, sweet treat, and bottled water.
A full change of seasonally appropriate clothing is included in every outreach bag. All clothing is provided by our generous donors.
Sign up to prepare meals or to ride along with our team of volunteers to distribute hygiene bags, meals, and clothing every Sunday from 5 – 7pm.
Looking for experienced volunteers to join our team of outreach drivers. Contact us for more information.
