Sponsor a Donation Drive

Hundreds of people seek emergency and long-term help at Buffalo City Mission every day.  To meet the great demand for food and clothing, we rely on the help of community volunteers to assist with special drives and seasonal collections.  Your group can join us in ministering to the homeless by sponsoring one or more of the drives listed below.  If you drop off your collected items at our Men’s Center, we invite you to tour to see firsthand the benefits of your compassion.

NOTE: Please contact us when you begin organizing a drive.  We have helpful hints, directions and specific promotional guidelines for using our logo and name.  Please call Aubrey Calhoun, director of community relations, at (716) 854-8181, ext. 401 or through contact us to receive coordination information.
