At this time, more than ever, Northeast needs our community. We need your help as we enter into our 56th year. Our annual “Love Thy Neighbor” campaign has a goal of raising $75,000 on Wednesday, February 26, 2025 From 8 a.m.-5 p.m. we will be hosting a donation DRIVE-THRU accepting donations of new clothes, shoes, and diapers in our facility located at 839 N. Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive. During this day we encourage you and members of our community to rally together to donate.

Those who donate $100 cash or $100 worth (with receipt) of items receive a half dozen cookies from Giggles. We strongly encourage businesses, schools, and organizations to volunteer and help.

Area businesses are also collecting items – all 121 Coffee Run locations (including the Perfect Pair), Giggles, Big Hungry’s Daylight Donuts, Heartland Bank, & RTB Fitness the week prior to the event.Those who donate onsite at these locations, will receive either a free item or a discount on their services.
