Donations and Support
Every little bit helps! Donate today!
StreetWise distributes food, clothing and household items at the Lawrenceville facility every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, and two Tuesday evenings a month by appointment, and at our monthly Mobile Food Pantry. Last year, StreetWise was blessed to distribute over 980,000 lbs. of food to over 8,000 families. With help from the community, we hope to exceed this in 2015.
