Winter Essential Items

Share the Warmth is HomeAid Colorado’s annual initiative to collect winter essentials for individuals and families experiencing homelessness. Leading up to Homelessness Awareness Month in November, we gather items specifically identified by our service provider partners as most needed, ensuring those they serve receive exactly what they require to stay warm during the colder months.

These items are distributed to our partners in mid-November in honor of Homelessness Awareness Month, providing critical support to those in need. Your participation helps make a meaningful difference in keeping vulnerable members of our community safe and warm this winter.

Let’s Restore Hope and Dignity
Did you know that Colorado’s homeless communities aren’t just lacking a roof over their head? Unsheltered individuals live without the means to acquire the necessary human comforts of warmth, health, safety, and cleanliness.

The need is high and it’s even harder to secure resources for Colorado’s homeless population. That is why HomeAid Colorado is asking you to Share the Warmth by donating new hats, gloves or socks to our neighbors at risk of or already experiencing homelessness. Together, we can take action to help restore dignity and hope to those in our community who need it the most.

Your Generosity is Appreciated
There are real people on the streets without access to critical supplies that are durable and warm enough to stand up to the elements, especially on Colorado’s coldest nights. For that reason, we are asking for donations of new, durable winter gear—preferably wind-resistant and waterproof gloves, mittens, and hats, as well as warm, thick socks to ensure both warmth and durability. Of course, all donations of new gloves, hats, and socks are welcome and will be put to use by those who need these supplies during this critical time.
