We believe that changing homelessness begins with a relationship, and “LoveBags” can be used to build a bridge to begin a relationship with that homeless man or woman.
We are not a feeding program; we recognize the need for and value of food as we seek to build those relationships with the homeless. Our intent however, is not to only feed but to use that food - the Love Bag - as the beginning of a relationship.
We also do not provide case management, but we encourage the homeless to take those next steps with a program or shelter that can help.

Lovebags.org is the framework that enables several LoveBags groups. We’re all volunteers.

faq
are you affiliated with a particular church?
No, but we’re pretty sure Jesus would approve. As the saying goes, actions speak louder than words. We do partner with churches and other faith-based organizations interested in helping the homeless, as well as local business, schools, and cities.
i have a bunch of clothes i’d like to donate, will you take them?
Yes, for sure. If you have any sort of clothing donation, or even things like blankets, shoes, etc, please email us and we will discuss further.
one of my parents works for Zip-Loc, could you use a large donation of plastic bags?
Wait..are you serious? Haha, no really, that’d be awesome!
