We have a big need for mens underwear. Select the Donate button to find out how to donate.
Recurring, automated donations are needed to help us pay for the everyday costs of supporting the homeless. Even as little as $10 a month will go a long way in assuring our ability to continue our mission.
A good pair of shoes can make a world of difference to the homeless. We have a big need for shoe donations, specifically closed toes shoes. Sneakers are ideal. (No heels.)
CTH is run completely by volunteers and we could use your help.
We need help sorting and organizing donations as well as distributing clothes to the homeless.
All distributions are held outdoors with safety precautions.

The Covid pandemic and restrictions have impacted all of us.
We've been fortunate to have our generous sponsors and other big-hearted individuals continue to donate backpacks, clothing and other items.
Since many of our past distribution sites were closed due to Covid, we had to think of new ways to distribute clothing and other necessities to the increasing number of people living on the streets.
For most of this year, our Director Mitch and a few other dedicated volunteers have conducted impromptu "Ninja Runs".
For our Ninja runs, we load the van with necessities: backpacks, blankets, sweaters, jackets, etc.
We drive to areas in Costa Mesa, Santa Ana, Anaheim, Stanton, and Riverside to distribute these items directly to people living on the streets.
We've been able to serve over 600 individuals with some basic necessities to help them survive on the streets.
We are grateful for all your monetary, clothing and other items donated to help make these runs possible.
Do you have a sleeping bag that you haven't used recently? Consider donating it to CTH.
How To Donate Sleeping BagsWe rely 100% on volunteers from all faiths and backgrounds to help at distributions and our "Ninja Runs".
How You Can Help"I can't thank you enough for your donations to our agency today. The donation was incredibly generous. I hope that you did enjoy giving as much as I enjoy all the hope and comfort these clothes will bring to the people I serve every day."
