Contribute to the Plymouth Supply Center

 

 

The Plymouth Supply Center (PSC) is a place where Plymouth residents can come and shop for supplies for themselves and their homes, free of charge.

When someone moves into a Plymouth apartment after experiencing homelessness, having a quality, permanent home is just the beginning. With residents’ average yearly income under $9,000, not needing to worry about the cost of essential goods can go a long way in helping someone find stability—allowing them to focus on their healing journey. The center also provides our residents with a sense of agency in choosing which products and supplies fit their needs best.

“For residents to come in and be able to shop in a place that looks like a store—bright, beautiful, and welcoming—that means a lot to people. It makes them feel seen,” said Searetha S., a Plymouth resident and former board member.

With your support, we hope to stock the PSC with the home essentials and basic necessities that are most requested by our residents. If you are interested in donating new and used items or volunteering at the center, more information can be found below.
